wrong again^ its not the majority it is still minority. Just Because invaders came from outside and settled in north india doesn't mean the orginal dravidian genes of North indians were lost. Today north india is a mix bag of people. Most still look very dravidian, while some others kinda look iranian type but that is still very small. In Pakistan though there are a lot of persian genes. |
Here comes another. "Persian" genes presumably are the descendants of Persia or the Persian ethnic group,of which perhaps only the Parsis have been proven to be from. In fact he's probably right, Northwest India does have more Parsis. The Iranian type just means the plateau region, and it's not a single type (of people or genes), but many different groups of people.
