Hi, First of all don't take it otherwise as this is one of most confusing question in our Jat community and still no one have perfect answer if someone have please let us know, Please do not post abusive comments.
Some of difference between Jat and Jatt are:

2. Both are known for high degree of self esteem and bravery.
3. Jat mainly lives in State Haryana, Rajasthan, Delhi, Punjab and Western UP while Jatt mainly lives in Punjab, Delhi and Canada.

  2. "Jatt mainly lives in Punjab, Delhi and Canada"
    ^ Are you sure about that ? For a start there are more jatts in Pakistan than there are jats in Haryana....Not to mention the fact that England has more jatts than Canada. But the biggest surprise is 'Delhi' ! There are more jatts in small provincial industrial towns of the Canadian praries than there are in Delhi. Historically, the jatts of punjab have always hated Delhi with a passion. Thats the main reason the British unleashed them on Delhi to brutally crush the Indian Rebellion.
    Now khatri sikhs and arora sikhs......there are plenty of them in delhi (in fact more than in Punjab) but very very few jatts.

  3. JAT and Jatt is same word but different ways of saying in respective languages namely hindi and Punjabi. Anybody who claims otherwise is politicizing the words to get some political life(religiously or regionally).

    Though a difference might come in context of religion but there have been many leaders of India who were Jats who have denounced religion as it is nothing but an act of division. Shaheed Bhagat Singh was on of them.

    You will find Pakistani Muslim Jats vehemently opposing this belief for obvious reasons because they converted from Hindu and that being Pakistani does that to you. Though these very Pakistani Jats then try to misinform Sikh Jats who propagate Khalistani Movement same stuff. Though the educated Indian Sikh Jats know the facts. The educated people in all religions acknowledge the facts.

    There is another race in the world with same problem they are Kurds of middle east, they follow more than 4 religions and are in more than 5 countries.
