Are Katika (also known as Suryavanshi) are a community hailing from the South Indian states of Telangana, Andhra pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu including Maharashtra. Their traditional occupations include working as meat traders, hunters and soldiers. [citation needed][1] They follow Hinduism and do not slaughter animals for Halal meat, which can only be done by Muslim Qureshis. They are Kshatriyas who were assigned as soldiers of the Maratha clan.
