I just read that Hindu Shahis belonged to two dynasties, the first one being Brahmin, the second one Janjua Rajput which started with Jayapala. But I remember reading in some Mohyal site of Jayapala also being Brahmin. If somebody can provide input on the same please do.

This is wrong. Brhamins and rajputs have no connection.

Please see www.mohyal.com, the history of Vaids and tell me why you are so sure. They claim even Porus was a Mohyal. Mohyals are Brahmins.

Kartik,
Mohil is a shakha of chauhan rajputs. Page 360 : Annals and antiquities of ancient rajasthan: James Tod,
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> Manik Rae......had numerous progeny...The Kheechie, the Hara, the Mohil....
are all descended from him. Mohils rules 1400 villages as late as 15th centruy around Nagore.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
You can read about Mohil chief here:

Mohil and Mohyal have no connection.
Also there are many theories about Porus. Some claim him to be a Khatri, some Brahmin and so on.

Shahi rajputs as I told you earlier are still around and have no connection with mohyal brahmins.
