Are rohilas a rajput community

Answer 1

Rohilas are not considered a Rajput community; they are primarily associated with the Afghan ethnic group, particularly descendants of the Pashtuns who migrated to India. The term "Rohila" specifically refers to these Afghan settlers, who became prominent in the northern regions of India during the 18th century. While they may have adopted some cultural practices similar to those of Rajputs, their roots and identity are distinct from the Rajput community.
