Is rajput a higher caste than jat?

The true meaning of rajput i.e. son of king. I think you should also know a king doesn't have any caste but only a religion (Raj dharma) and only the public has the caste so that they can fight over it to prove their superiority.

Let be clear more on that who should be called a Rajput. We would talk about a great king called Prithiviraj Raj chouhan. Prithiviraj raj chouhan fathered a son and till now his descendents are in 42nd leg. Lets integrate all these and presently there should not be more than 1000 chouhan including all other chouhan kings on the holy mother earth who has king's blood in their veins. Prithiviraj who died at the age of 43 and his many grandsons to grandsons having his blood are really the son of king and be called the descendant of chouhan clan. Now the number game; chouhan's total pollution in India is more than 20 to 30 lacs so the question arises from where they all came from when they are not son of the chouhan king. Did you ever think about it? Let's think

What happened in earlier time when a king died or was killed? People of that kingdom started moving out for the sake of job and security. That times in another kingdom how they introduced themselves? They used to give their identity with the surname of the king eg. "Chouhan Walle". Anyone from the kingdom like laborer, barber, Sepoy, mazdoor ,toilet-cleaner , smiths , tailor and other people of the kingdom used to introduced themselves with the surname of the king in another states like "Chouhan Walle" whenever anyone questioned "Bhai kon ho tum". As time passed they removed "Walle" from their identity and started using chouhan as their surname and became the rajput. This is applicable to all rajput clans because we need to understand that when we say rajput then he must be the son of the king of some palace like maharaja of Jodpur or Dholpur or Hyderabad .In earlier time people (especially lower caste) shifted their native place and changed their surname with time( As learnt from their native place) and become the pretended son of the king but the truth is King used to be the richest , skilled and most powerful man of a state but how rich are the people who claim to be the rajput. These self-claimed rajputs generally doesn't know their caste and did a caste upliftment with the reference of King's clan or took benefits of the social chaos happened after any king's death. First answer me; people who claim to be rajput are the son of whose king? Are they actually satisfying the true meaning of the Rajput or just cracking a Joke on themselves? Because 98% of Rajputs are not emperors (living in very poor condition in many parts of Rajasthan, UP, MP, Haryana and women doing uncultured activities in many villages. Visit to any villages of these states to see what are your real rajput doing there?. Doing jobs of water filling, Security guards, Nai, Drivers , selling Panipuries . Please help them) and 98% rajput fit into the scenario discussed above are called GOLAs in Rajasthan. The meaning of GOLAs in Rajasthan is Dasi putra or son of barber, sepoy, mazdoor , toilet cleaner , smith , tailor , dhobi etc. who was employed in the Raj-Tantra . Many historian called them Aam rajput . Aam rajput should see their body, height, facial complexion and see whose son they look like or where they best fit into Indian caste system. Now talk about the remaining 2% of rajputs who are called samwanti rajput and are the real Rajput or son of king like scindia family,Gaytri devi family in Jaipur and for others just do a google search. Calling oneself a rajput means a lot. They must understood the fundamental characteristics of being a rajput and then only one should pronounce to be a rajput. First look at your financial status, your looks whether you look like a prince or GOLA , have bold heart or Chaploose because I have seen many aam rajputs self praising themselves but in another scenario they are the first to lick ass of their bosses or shivering when it comes to fight , on that occasion their real man comes out and shows they belong to some lower caste of the society. So before pronouncing oneself as rajput one shall measure on the scale on financial status, body, guts, intelligence, facial complexion and other Princely parameters and then see whether they qualifying for a GOLAput or rajput. Being a Ph.d student of social changes I surprise how lower caste did upliftment of their caste under the name of Rajputs by shifting their place and adding king's surname behind their name and offering their daughters to Bhahmins. This could be understood again by the conversation between the two.

Gopi(A Sepoy and a neighbor of Babulal) : Kon ho tum?

Babu (New habitant, settled from another state and occupation : A carpenter): main babulal

Gopi: Kon babulal

Babulal: chouhan walle ( From the state where Chouhan clan was rulling)

(Gopi to his wife)

Gopi:Apne pados me a naya padosi aaya hai

Wife : Kon hai kaha se hai

Gopi: Babulal(silence) arey wo chouhan walle

Gradually Bababul became Babulal chouhan walla

And after 50 years his grandsons removed Walla from chouhan as became simply chouhan as grandson of Babulal chouhan. From carpenter to Rajput. And generally such rajputs more loudly and proudly call themselves rajput because it always has been a human interest to link oneself to the power and money which they can't ever get. Have you ever heard about the king of Jodhpur or Gwalior calling themselves rajput because they know they are the king. They have power, property, big palaces which introduces themselves (as real rajput) before they say to someone but what about Aam rajput ?? People who claimed to be rajput first see what they and their so called dear Rajput community doing : In states like Haryana , Rajasthan, MP , UP , HP Rajputs are performing jobs of security guards, dhobis ,homegaurd , Nai, Chowkidar , drivers, auto wala means eating jobs of poor people. First look at that because a royal blood would never allow doing those things but they do it means their blood is reflecting their caste and we can conclude they were doing those jobs in all time in Indian history. For a hotel security guard jobs they also keep dense and long moustache to show their raoyality hahahaa.Lage raho. Waise rajputaniya rajasthan me daru mast nikalti hai, pura nasa hota hai. Cheers to rathor takurain.

This is how caste conversion happened for Aam rajputs. rajput is never a caste but lower caste for their benefits got converted into aam rajputs and made it a caste. Only samwanti Rajput qualifies to be a real Rajput because they fit into the criteria of being Rajput. Rest of aam rajputs are GOLAs. So please don't make a joke of yours. Ghar pe nahi khane ko dane and ban gaye prince from Rajput gharane.

What your parents were yesterday you are today.

Now I would tell you the biggest false event or say joke spread. You won't believe; common people have mistaken and misplaced that poem as history.

I just want to educate/warn you that just beware of your (Gola/raj)puts friends because there were and are the greatest liar in entire Indian history.

The great poet Chandbardai who created many Veer ras(heroic or gallant poem) to instill patriotism in people. One of verse from his poem Prithiviraj Raso were "Char bans, chaubis gaj, angul ashta praman, Ta upar sultan hai, Chuke mat Chauhan." This poem has nothing to do with the history but many silly ninny people try to link that poem with their history. This was just a poem but (gola/raj)puts have used it for their advantage or false advertisement. I've taken snippet from the book Advanced study in the history of medieval India. Volume 1 P.82". Please keep reading below

to learn more. Please don't be upset or disappointed if you were under (false)impression that Prithiviraj Raj Chauhan killed Muhammad of Ghori. It is all trap.

"Ghiyasuddin,the elder brother of Muhammad Ghori died in 1203 and the latter acquired an independent status as a ruler.He assumed the tittle of Muizuddin.

The last two years of his reign were full of troubles and misfortunates.He suffered a humiliating defeay in 1205 at the hands of the shah of Khwarizm.

soon afterwards,he heard the news of a revolt by khokhars in central punjab.Hardpressed,Aibek appealed to Muhammad Ghori for help.

The latter came to Punjab, crushed the revolt and helped Aibek in restorin law and order.On his return journey to Ghazni, he was encamped at Dhamyak (distrct jhelum) on the Indus when a party of the Khokhar dare-devils stealthily entered his tent and put him to death on March 15,1206. KHOKAR is one of the surname used by Jats.

Gauri was Killed by Khokhars in Punjab any text book of history of 11-12th class

(say NCERT/CBSE) mentions that.

For detailed story refer to Minhaj,Tabaqat i nasiri, E&D ,II,p.294

Now moving on to the JATs. In today's time they don't require any introduction because everybody accolades them from games to military, from education to politics. To know more read newspaper or watch TV.

Just listen to the song in that JAAT were praised(I won't go to shivpuran and other historical references which you can find a lot on www) Aye Mere Watan Ke Logon from lata jiand find

koi sikh koi jaat maraatha

koi gurakha koi madaraasiJust type JAT in reverse order and you would understand who are JAT...TAJ . The Crown.

Don't be in trap of Bhahmins . They were the clever people and they were the real king maker. They know how to rule. Padde likhe hoke bhi inn batao pe wiswaas karte ho. Gajab ke ch**** ho. Had hai.. I should not write all these things(I felt really bad) because they have no meaning in today's world. First be an Indian and then a Hindu but never be a Jat, Rajput nahi to mayawati raaj karegi.Ghar se bhahar aayo bhaiyo or dekho ye dunia kaha ja raha hai or tum log abhi bhi caste sysyem me marr rahe ho jo bhrahimon ne tumhari hi lene ke liye banai thi. Koi na new generation sab sahi kar degi. Wait n watch. Padte raho apni Takur Kuran jo tumne hi likhi hai.Lage raho. Waise rajputaniya rajasthan me daru mast nikalti hai, pura nasa hota hai. Cheers to rathor takurain. I really miss her.
