Azmarai76 Joseph Theodore Arlinghaus clearly states it to dardic. Provide reference that this Dari dialect was ever spoken in Swat (which it again, makes no mention), or that Swatis ever spoke Persian language.

with he had read ironology he would have found many references on the subject like Notes on Baluchistan and Afghanistan, Tabaqat I Nasiri and many others. The reference I have given is listed on Wikipedia itself. SEEMS like Arlinghaus just got the local misprinting translated.

however, if you have any reason for these population groups having different genetic makeup I will buy your point of view on this.

Azmarai76 I don't care whether Swatis were Dardic, Tajik or Pashtun. But if you want to add a POV, you must provide a WP:RS. None of your suggested references are reliable: first is written by an early 19th century British servant while second is terribly outdated primary source, which most probably doesn't even mention Swatis.

what about the current genetic study that you turned down conducted just now 2000s???? Any reason why you deleted it. I can see your ambition for Dardisization of tye region.
I think you deleted Tariq & Habib which has shown Swatis and Dards different racially۔ Why has that happened I fail to understand. Dards aren't like what their few NGO running Dard guys.
