Kindly, S. Surindar Singh Ji Rathore Rajpoot sent me his<br />

S.srDWjlI<br />

book in January 2010 called Ki <strong>Bhat</strong>re <strong>Bhat</strong> Brahmin Han<br />

Ja Rajpoot. In Çwhich<br />

he feels and is adamant that <strong>Bhat</strong>s<br />

are Brahmin and a very low class one at that and <strong>Bhat</strong>re<br />

are Rajpoot. He is trying to get his theory off the Ground<br />

by giving lots of citations from the old Magazine <strong>Sangat</strong><br />

Samachar as well as picking up <strong>information</strong> from GY.<br />

Makhmoor Ji’s book, Gy. Rattan Singh’s Shad Ji book<br />

Krantic Lehar da it has as well as from the books of Gy.<br />

Gian Singh Araf Ji. If you would like to order a book from<br />

him it cost Rs150 + postage. His address is Sherpur<br />

bypass, Dhuri District Sangroor Punjab India. We are<br />

going to tell you as to what he has written about you, eg<br />

all the Gotan. So let us start with, he goes on to say that<br />

he is going to tell us about the 22 Jatan of the <strong>Bhat</strong>ra<br />

<strong>Sikh</strong> community. Also order <strong>Bhat</strong>ra Rajput Vansh Prampra<br />

There are only proper 10 gotan of the community and<br />

these are 1. Rathore, 2. <strong>Bhat</strong>ti, 3. Kushwha, 4. Taak,<br />

5. Bence, 6. Larh, 7.Guarh, 8.Badgujar,9. Chohan. And<br />

the 10 th . is Parmar. He goes on to say that these are<br />

the 10 main ones then also they have branches and they<br />

are1. Lakhanpal, 2.Digwa, 3. Bhakar, 4. Roudh,<br />

5.Potiwal (Patwal) 6. Lohiae, 7. Kaang<br />

8. Naikteen, 9.Utarwal, 10.Kehnthe or Kehnth. Then<br />

there are 3 new branches which are 1. Suwalis, 2.Golea,<br />

3.yougi. He goes on to say that these are 3 branches are<br />

also branches but now they are also known as the proper<br />

Gotan and do marry within each other gotan.<br />

1. Rathore –<br />

One of the Jaats of the Rajpoots and this is Suraj vanshi<br />

Marwar, and in Bikaner this Jaat can be found and that is<br />

where they are setteled. According to the Mahankosh<br />

page 1018 column 3)1 These Jaat came out of Sri Ram<br />

younger son Kush. Its old name use to be Rashterkoot<br />

and from there slowly it came to Rashter koot the slowly<br />

became to be known as Raoter then Rathore with V and<br />

now it is Rathore.<br />

Some of the Kabila of Kush came to the west; here they<br />

had their kingdom called Maan Khera. One section came<br />

and set up a kingdom in Maharashtra and here they<br />

spread them selves as far away as Kathiawar, Bindaoo,<br />

and to Kanaouj. In year 1243 e or there about they came<br />

to Marwar and the Rathores made their Rajdhani in<br />

Jodhpur, Bikaner. Rathore are well known for their might<br />

see Rajput Wanshawali page 73-75.<br />

Further on this Kabila got divided in to 135 to 140<br />

branches in the <strong>Bhat</strong>ra Community Rathore and its Swali<br />

branch can be found<br />

2. <strong>Bhat</strong>ti :-<br />

According to Colonel Todd that <strong>Bhat</strong>ti were born in the<br />

city of Jaisalmair and in the Yadve family that is why they<br />

call them <strong>Bhat</strong>ti. Eventually they were controlling all the<br />

land in the east side of the Garah River.(history of<br />

Rajasthan page 33)<br />

One section of the <strong>Bhat</strong>ti community came to the hilly<br />

side of Punjab and established a Kingdome in 623e and<br />

at one time they even set up their own calendar called<br />

<strong>Bhat</strong>eek. <strong>Bhat</strong>ner and Bathinda were some of their towns<br />

where they use to live. In Pindi it self there was a great<br />

hero Dula <strong>Bhat</strong>ti, and then at the time of Guru Nanak dev<br />

Ji there was this famous Rai Bulaar <strong>Bhat</strong>ti.<br />

The well to do people of Patiala, Nabha, Sangroor link<br />

them selves Rajput <strong>Bhat</strong>ti ( Rajput Wanshawali page<br />

214)<strong>Bhat</strong>ti are Chandar wanshi Rajput. Lots of the <strong>Bhat</strong>ti<br />

became Muslims. They are divided in to lots of different<br />

sections. There is’nt an area of Punjab where you will not<br />

see <strong>Bhat</strong>ti Rajput. Within the <strong>Bhat</strong> <strong>Sikh</strong> community there<br />

is a prominent kinship. For further <strong>information</strong> see <strong>Bhat</strong>ra<br />

Rajput vansh prampra.<br />

3.Chohan:- According to Bhai Kahn Singh Nabha the<br />

Chohan are one of the Jaats of the Rajput. It is believed<br />

and as the saying goes that the Chohan had four arms.<br />

Maharaja Prithviraj Raj Chohan belonged to this Jaat as<br />

well. (Mahan Kosh page 478). According to Colonel Taad<br />

Chohan- (Cheman) is Rajput, and are most valiant, brave,<br />

fearless and high spirited community. The Chohan have 24<br />

different branches (history of Rajasthan page 36-371) lots<br />

of different places there are Jaat who also call them selves<br />

Chohan. In Punjab many of the Khinchi and Varech are<br />

also call them selves Chohan. According to the new finds<br />

the Chohan’s are suraj vanshi Rajput. He goes on to say<br />

that he has list of 150 names which also link the Chohan to<br />

Gola (Goelwal or goelsan). He goes on to say that this Jaat<br />

remembers their ancestors and starts from Ravgoga<br />

Chohan. Chohan can be found in all parts of the Punjab<br />

and are a very big Kabila.<br />

4.Gola:- Within the <strong>Bhat</strong>ra <strong>Sikh</strong> community Gola is<br />

well known Jaat, some Golea also calling them<br />

selves Chohan. The Gola Jaat also remembers their<br />

ancestors and starts with the Chohan Ravgoga.<br />

According to some writers that from the 24 different<br />

branches of the Chohan Gola is also one of the old<br />

ones among them. The Gola have been known to be<br />

called Goelwal, Gull, Golawal, and Golason are the<br />

names of Gola Jaat. According to Gy Makhmoor he<br />

believes that Gola are Gohale Rajput. But this writer<br />

say he is not correct and that Golea really are<br />

Chohan as well as they are Suraj Vanshi Rajput.<br />

5 Lakhanpal:- In the <strong>Bhat</strong>ra <strong>Sikh</strong> community<br />

Lakhanpal as well as their branch Landa can be<br />

found. The Lakhanpal Jaat can also be found in<br />

among the Rajput as well as barbers and the Nayee<br />

community. According to Mr HS Rose this is part of<br />

the Rajput’s and that they are Chander Vanshi.<br />

Gy Makhmoor Ji says that this Jaat started from the<br />

14 sons of Raja Pushkar and that one of the sons<br />

was called Lakhanpal. But Rose goes on to say that<br />

this Jaat can also be found in the Barbers Nayee<br />

Kabila. But according to this writer he says that this<br />

Kabila was born in Parmar Wrah family and that they<br />

are the off spring of Raja of Bathinda who was called<br />

Lakhanpal who can also be found in the Gill Jaats as<br />

well. A branch of Lakhanpal and Landae can also be<br />

found in the Gill Jaats as well. He goes on to say that<br />

I have written them as Suraj Vanshi in my other book.<br />

He goes on to say that if we get out of the arguments<br />

of Suraj Vanshi or Chander Vansi then this becomes<br />

clear that this Lakhanpal Kabila is Rajput, and that<br />

they are not Brahmin of <strong>Bhat</strong> background. The Landa<br />

Jaat in the form of Lundea can be found in kamboan<br />

or Kambojan community as well. The Kamboje Kabila<br />

believes that they are Kasturi Brhamin.<br />

Well here are some of our Jaatan, Kabilea see what<br />

you make of your own, I have translated as best as I<br />

can, but please do give us some feedback from these<br />

so that we can come to you with the rest of them like<br />

Bhakar, Jogi, Sheri, Budgujar or Goojra, Roudh,<br />

Digwa, Parmar, panwar, Potiwal, Patwal, Lohiae,<br />

Swali If I have missed any please do let me know<br />

and if we don’t know then we will ask some one who<br />

does. Jaswant Singh Jas Chief Editor.<br />

Rest in the next issue. P12<br />
