Vague source used to come to a completely unrelated conclusion
[edit]The word Mir comes from the Arabic word Amir meaning commander or leader. The word is widely used across many regions as a title, name and in this case a tribal caste.
The name Mir is extremely common,and it denotes many different tribes and castes with no relation to one another, so just because the name Mirwani is mentioned as a Gujjar tribe in the given source doesn't mean the Mirwani tribe specifically of Balochistan are Gujjars. This could have denoted a completely different tribe.
There are no other sources for the mirwanis of Balochistan being Gujars,so I propose this source be removed, or a separate Wikipedia page should be made for Brahui Mirwanis to avoid confusion with Gujjar Mirwanis (who mostly live in the Punjab and Kashmir areas).
