    1. There is no caste specifically called as "Daivadyna Sonar". It is Daivadnya Bramhin's who are known as one of the superior Bramhin community in the state of Maharashtra & Goa.

      In the recent years the Daivadnya Bramhin individuals who are into business of gold manufacturing have created a group and named it as Daivadyna Sonar for their own self interests & benefits. This Group is very small in numbers.
