no. In fact they are part of the kshatriya/khatri caste. please wiki "ahluwalia" for more info...

Walia related to Ahluwalia. Jassa Singh Ahluwalia's father was Sandhu Jatt. So the Community Walia & Ahluwali is related to JATT SIKH COMMUNITY.

Walia is the short name of Ahluwalia caste.This caste originated in punjab(India) in the name of Sardar Jassa Singh Ahluwalia who was the great soldier and was the king of Kaputhala State in punjab the followers of him use their sir name is walia or ahluwalia

Ahluwalias are one of the most progressive and proud community of Punjab. Ahluwalias are an elite community of Kshatriyas. Ahluwalias are renowned for energy, enterprise and obstinacy. Its an old proverb "Death may budge but they won't". Ahluwalias have abandoned their hereditary occupation Distillers and taken up agriculture,commerce,army,civil administration and other commodities. Ahluwalias are in more exalted commercial enterprise particularly in government service where many have achieved notable success. Some have achieved prominence in the army. Others have done so in literature and the universities, earning for themselves an acknowledged reputation as intellectuals

Ahluwalias are in both sikhs and non sikhs. We are JATT sikh as well as khatris and placed a very high reputation in our society so proud your self to be a WALIA (AHLUWALIA).
