@Zeddroute: This article is not about the surname. It is about a specific social group, and the sources cited in the article explicitly call it "Raut caste". For example, Gender and Genre in the Folklore of Middle India: "Older Chhattisgarhi informants told me in 1980 that in Chhattisgarh, too, candainl singers used to be primarily from the cowherding Raut caste." There are a bunch of other sources: [1].
There is a separate page for the surname: Raut (surname). Please see WP:DISAMBIG. Also, the links that you have provided don't even mention the word "Raut". utcursch | talk 18:27, 16 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
