Why Sikh jatts hate khatris or aroras?
Jatts are generally people who go by their heart rather than brain so it is very easy for snti-social elements to fool them.
Hindu jatts are trying to create a divide between Sikhs by distinguishing between Sikhs and Sikh Jatts are easily attracted to this notion that they are superiors and Khatri/Aroras are inferior. Other hindu groups similarly tell Khatris/Aroras that they are superiors as they converted from Kshatriya caste and Gurus were Khatris.
Now it is upto Sikhs to decide to fall for such traps set by politicians and other communities or stay as united Sikhs rejecting caste-ism.
In general, Siks do not hate each other on basis of caste.
