Is pagar surname is 96kuli maratha?

Answer 1

Pagar surname comes under Gavali clan.

The first Yadav Gavli association was founded in 1903 and in the early 1920s it petitioned the South borough Committee to recognize the caste as Maratha- Kshatriya.

In support of their claim, the Yadav Gavli cited their legendary descent from Krishna, a history of Yadav kings in North India, Gujarat, and the Deccan, their Kshatriya practices, and their frequent service in the British military, to include the Maratha regiments.

Mother of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj- Jijabai was also from Yadava clan.

So they are Kshatriyas by birth.

Answer 2

Well, honey, "Pagar" is indeed a Maratha surname, but the whole 96 Kuli Maratha thing is a bit of a myth. It's a traditional way of classifying Maratha clans, but it's not really a strict rule these days. So yeah, Pagar could be part of the 96 Kuli Maratha group, but it's not like they get a special badge or anything.
