Jaitly

"Jaitly or Jetley as in the actress Celina Jaitly or the politicians Arun Jaitly and Jaya Jaitly, is a surname from India and its surrounding regions. This is a Saraswat Brahmin caste and has five subcastes, also called the Panch Jati or "The five families"(Kumaria, Jhingan, Mohla, Jaitly, Trikha).

Jaitlys are from Amritsar, Lahore, Rawalpindi areas. Mostly the gotra of Jaitly is Vatsa, in the lineage (pravaras) of the sage Brahmarishi Bhrigu.

The early 20th century book by H. A. Rose, "A Glossary of the Tribes and Castes of the Punjab and North-West Frontier Province" summarized the variety of families and tribes of Vedic origin at the time. The Jaitly, or Jetley family is one of the five families that constitute the "Panjzati." The late 19th Century book by Jogendra N. Bhattacharya, "Hindu Castes and Sects" also gives the historical details of this Brahmin family.

The "Panjatias" are the highest order of Brahmins in the Punjab. The other families being: Mohle, Jhingan, Trikha and Kumaria. The "Panjzati" were also known as the purohits (chief Brahmins and royal courtiers) of the Dhaighar Khatris and have had very close relations with the Khatris of the Punjab for many millennia. Rose points out the story of Parashurama destroying the Kshatriyas of the world, when a pregnant woman of the caste took refuge with a Saraswat. When the child was born, the Saraswat invested the knowledge of the Vedas in him. The boy married 18 Kshatriya girls and his sons took the names of the various rishis and founded the lineage of the Khatris. It was this that led to the foundation, supposedly, of the Sarawats being the purohits of the ancient Khatris.
