Patels belong to the Upper caste Landlords of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. Next after the Brahmins....they are actually the most dominant upper caste in Gujarat. That is the reason why other castes of Gujarat like Jats,Gurjars,Brahmins,Rajputs(Darbar),Lohana sometimes adopt this surname to mingle with the real upper caste Patels. In caste if a Patel is O.B.C or S.C, he is certainly not a real Patel but is misusing the Upper Caste status of The Patels.

Is the kondal caste in Hinduism is high one or low?

In Hinduism, the concept of caste is a complex social stratification system that categorizes individuals based on their birth and occupation. The term "kondal caste" does not appear to be a widely recognized or established caste within the traditional Hindu caste system. It is important to note that the caste system is a controversial and often discriminatory social structure that has been widely debated and criticized for its impact on social inequality in India.
