Bughâna.—A class of Hill Brâhmans who by one account are descended from Gaur Brâhmans of Benares; others say that they have the same origin as the Naithâna Brâhmans (q.v.). They have the same relations with Sarolas and Gangâris, are intelligent, and, when educated, make useful clerks and officials.179
