No. Rye, wheat, oats and barley all contain gluten. Some one who is gluten free may describe themselves as not being able to eat wheat for simplicity. However, there is a difference between a gluten intollerance and a wheat intollerance. If you are cooking for someone with this dietary requirement you should always confirm exactly what to avoid.

Who was the first person to discover gluten?
In the 7th century, the Buddhist monks discovered gluten, while kneading wheat flour with water to make a dough. Gluten is found naturally in grains and binds together two separate proteins found within the grain. Gluten consists of two proteins, gliadin and glutenin, and is commonly found in wheat, barley and rye. As it is insoluble in water, it can be obtained by washing away the associated starch and used as a leavening agent. An important source of protein, gluten is found in foods in their natural state and also as an additive in low protein foods. http://www.buzzle.com/articles/what-is-gluten.html

Rye in Hindi?
Rye is a low-gluten cereal grain (Secale cereale) of the triticeae tribe that I did not see in India, even when looking for it. The cultivation of rye was greatest from western Turkey into eastern Europe where it was sold to impoverished folks. Rye is much cheaper than wheat due to its bitter taste and low gluten content. The low gluten reduces its nutritive value and makes it hard to handle. Production in traditional areas of high production is falling steeply. Rye is also used in the production of rye whiskey. So rather than a translation, may I suggest we use a description? "Bitter grain" or some such might work. May I suggest कड़वा अनाज (kaduah anhja)? n.b. I have seen "ragi" रागी given as a translation, but raqi is millet which are small, globular round grass seeds, members of Poanceae. Rye, on the other hand, is an elongated seed and member of Triticeae, the wheat family.
How do you change rice flour to baking all purpose?
All-purpose flour is made from a blend of high-gluten hard wheat and low-gluten soft wheat. It's a fine-textured flour milled from the inner part of the wheat kernel and contains neither the germ (the sprouting part) nor the bran (the outer coating). Cake or pastry flour is a fine-textured, soft-wheat flour with a high starch content. It makes particularly tender cakes and pastries.
What is the fat content of wheat?
Wheat has a relatively low fat content, typically ranging from 1 to 2.5% depending on the variety and processing methods. Most of the fat found in wheat is unsaturated and primarily located in the germ, which is the part of the grain that can sprout into a new plant. The majority of wheat products, like flour, contain minimal fat, making them a low-fat food option.
Can you use gluten free flour instead of self raising flour?
Technically all flour has gluten in it. Gluten is a protein found in food processed from wheat and other related species. Different kinds of flours have different levels of gluten (bread flour has high gluten vs. cake flour with low gluten). Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with salt and some kind of leavening agent. So yes, self-rising flour, like all flour has gluten in it. It just doesn't have special amount added or taken away like bread or cake flour does. It has same gluten content as all-purpose flour.
