What is your zaat ?

Re: What is your zaat ?

There is no difference among Jats and Rajputs. Jats that served under brahmins were elevated to the status of Rajputs in the 10th century on Mount Abu. They were created to fight the islamic invasions.
Rajputs do not exist before the 10th century.

Also, several Jat and Rajput clans overlap. For example, Bhatti can be both rajput and Jat.

Also, gujjars are also from the same sycthian ethnicity as Jats and Rajputs. They also have common overlapping subclans.
Also, some dalits have the same subclan names as Jats,Rajputs, Gujjars. Some of these may be of name copying. Some of them may be jats,gujjars,rajputs who have lost status and become dalits.

For example, Chamars are a caste that used to work with leather. Becuase they worked with leather (dead cows) they became dalits. Chamars form close to 30% of Indian Punjab, yet they are almost unknown in Pakistan Punjab. This is because in Pakistan Punjab, people who worked with leather did not lose caste status and remained Jats,Gujjars,Rajputs etc etc

A wise man once said:

Wuza main tum ho Nasara, tou tamaddun main hanud **[fits Pakis perfectly these days]
Ye Musalman hain, jinhain dekh kay sharmain **Yahud

Yun tou Syed bhi ho, Mirza bhi ho, Afghan bhi ho
Tum sabhi kuch ho batao tou Musalmaan bhi ho?

And...
Aik hi hoon muslim haram ki paasbaani kay liyain
Neel kay sahil say lay kar tabkhak-e-Kashgar...
