'''Bhatnagar''' is a common surname used in mostly northern India among the [[Kayastha]] caste of Hindus. They came from the Second son of the first wife of Lord [[Chitragupta]] the recordkeeper of the [[Yama]] the God for death.{{Fact|date=February 2007}}. Shree Chitraksh (Bhatnagar):Disciple of sage Bhat.Wife was Bhadrakalini.Worshipped Jayanti. Maharaj Chitraguptji sent Shree Chitraksh to establish a Kingdom in the region of Bhat river at Bhattdesh and Malwa.They established Chittor and Chitrakoot He settled then there and his progeny came to be known as Bhatnagar.

It is best done [[laparoscopy|laparoscopically]] under [[general anesthesia]]. Usually, it takes about one hour. It consists in inserting a hollow plastic band around the stomach. This band is connected by a tubulure to a small box implanted in the abdominal wall. You can constrict the band by filling the box with physiologic serum. Band constriction has a restrictive effect on gastric filling capacity and forces the patient to lower his food intake and it can be modulated by emptying or filling the box with a percutaneous needle. This operation is practised only if the patient is highly motivated for changing his/her eating habits and after a psychiatric assessment.
