Gujjar World - History of Gujjar Nation

Gujjars- The cream of our society Posted on 17/08/2014 by Dailyexcelsior Om Saraf Gujjars have always struck me as the most fascinating people around us-a distinct ethnic entity with rich historic and cultural background, an utterly self-reliant community, a perfect example of a sound mind in a sound body. Let me confess it is a profound problem for me to consider them backward in any sense of the word. I may prove it up to the hilt that not a few so-called forward-looking people deserve this epithet rather more aptly. Seen in a larger context of familiar economic indicators, the self employed Gujjars are in no way responsible for the economic backwardness of Jammu and Kashmir State. So far as our all embracing backwardness is concerned, again, the real culprit are the people belonging to other communities who consume most of the resource and produce most of the perpetrators of major and minor crimes in the society. Blinded by wealth acquired by means more foul rather than fair and us...

Conflict between the Rashtrakutas, Gurjara Pratihara and Palas | Indian History by Puja Mondal Did the regular conflict between the Rashtrakutas, Gurjara Pratihara and Palas create a political vacuum in northern India which facilitated the invasion of Mahmud of Ghazni? Read this article to get the answer! By the middle of the 10th century India witnessed the decay of three of the most powerful states which had dominated east, north and central India during the two preceding centuries. These were the Pala Empire with its capital at Mongyr, the Gurjara Pratihara Empire with its capital at Kanauj and the Rashtrakuta Empire with its capital at Manyakhet. The Pala Empire was founded by the elected ruler Gopal in 750. He was succeeded by his son Dharmapala who raised the pala Kingdom to greatness. Soon after his accession Dharmapala was involved in a struggle with the two main powers the Pratiharas and the Rashtrakutas. The Pratihara ruler Vastaraja defeated Dharmapala in a battle which t...

Battle of Rajasthan Junaid, the successor of Qasim, finally subdued the Hindu resistance within Sindh. Taking advantage of the conditions in Western India, which at that time was covered with several small states, Junaid led a large army into the region in early 738 CE. Dividing this force into two he plundered several cities in southern Rajasthan, western Malwa, and Gujarat. Indian inscriptions confirm this invasion but record the Arab success only against the smaller states in Gujarat. They also record the defeat of the Arabs at two places. The southern army moving south into Gujarat was repulsed at Navsari by the south Indian Emperor Vikramaditya II of the Chalukya dynasty and Rashtrakutas. The army that went east, after sacking several places, reached Avanti whose ruler Nagabhata (Gurjar-Pratihara) trounced the invaders and forced them to flee. After his victory Nagabhata took advantage of the disturbed conditions to acquire control over the numerous small states up to the bo...

In eighteenth century Poonch was ruled over by Sango Gujjar who was a brave king. K.D Maini in 'Tareekh Poonch" writes Great scholar Dr. Jamil Jalbi of Pakistan has written in his book 'Urdu Adab ki Tareekh' at page 79 in his first edition in this way, "One form of Urdu language is found in Gujarat which is called as Gojri or Gujarat dialect. History tells us that Gujjar community entered India as conquerors and divided its southern occupied areas into three parts: the biggest was called as Maharath, second as Gujrath and the third as Swarath. The conquerors from Turkey found it difficult to pronounce Gujrath so they modified it to Gujarat." One usually finds the proofs of presence and rule of Gujjars in Kashmir form the external aggressions. According to history, Mohd. Gaznavi attacked Kashmir twice but he failed both the times and many kingdoms came up in Kashmir from 1038 A.D to 1326 A.D. Tung Rai Gujjar was the commander in chief opposite Mohd. Gaznavi. ...

Major world powers remained hell bent to promote their geo-political interests by playing one country off against the other from time to time, Both India and Pakistan have created highly nationalistic narratives of why their relations are troubled. Each side projects itself as pursuing the correct course of action and blames the other side for being responsible for conflict and tension in the region. On both sides, there are people and groups that have made careers out of preaching hatred against the other side. They have been socialised into a negative narrative about the other side and find it difficult to entertain the idea of normal relations between Pakistan and India. There is no scope for improvement of relations if India and Pakistan stay prisoners of history and cannot look beyond the historical baggage. Both sides will have to do some out-of-the-box thinking if their relations are to be normalised. They will have to address their blind spots if they want to resolve th...

Ch Rahmat Ali (RA) - Founder of Pakistan Even though 68 years have passed since his death, his writings about the dangers facing Muslims are as relevant today as they were then (truth always stands clear from error even over the passage of time). For instance, Ch. Rahmat Ali (RA) called for an Islamic Renaissance and in one pamphlet, he wrote: "Our greatest asset and opportunity is our Faith, which has created what we possess; it has made us what we are. That is, the emancipators of hundreds of millions of human beings. Islam has worked miracles for us in the past, and it can and will do the same for us now and always, if only we let it do so. Such is the promise of Islam. Yet such is our perversion that we are simply not following Islam. We are ignoring it in every sphere of life - individual, national, moral and material. Not only that, we are turning to alien, `Western' cults instead. That is, to cults that have already poisoned the source of our life, undermined the ...

Gujjar the beginning of the 17th century, the decline of the Mughal emperor was actually the beginning of the Gujjars in the Mughal era. There was an increased power of the Gujjars at that point of time. Finally Aurangzeb accepted the lordship of the Gujjar leaders in various principalities. The chief Gujjar power of the Mughal era are mentioned below Gurjar in Bharatpur district Bhati of Dadri Dera Gazi Khan Gurjarghar Pawar of Landhore Gurjar of Maharastra Nangde of Parikisatgarh Judeo of Samther The Gurjars and the Jats of Agra stood together at the time of Surajmal Jat.

Anangpal Tanwar was the first ruler to make ancient Delhi his capital. Little is known of Anangpal Tanwar, who was from the Gurjar Tanwar clan and whose ancestors had settled in the Aravalli Hills around the end of the first millennium AD. Some archaeological evidence survives of earlier settlements survive in the area and may be related to a ruler called Surajpal . Of Anangpal, the primary source for information comes from the Prithviraj Raso , a history of Prithviraj Chauhan which was written much later. Physical evidence at Lal Kot (literally Red Fort), which he is thought to have built and which is the oldest identifiable city in the area, suggests that he lived in the eleventh century. [1] [2] The Tanwar rule at Delhi passed to his son, Ausan Singh (Tejpal) and then his grandson Kosal Dev Singh (Mahipal) before the dynasty collapsed when challenged by Prithviraj Chauhan (1149-1192).

Ref: http://www.scribd.com/doc/77571532/Gurjar-Ism GURJAR ISM “It is beyond human power to lessen the dignity of the Gurjars” , words by Thakur Yashpal Singh Rajput, famous historian and researcher of Indian History. Millions liters blood of Gurjar community flooded on this earth for protection of our culture and religion. It is bitter historical truth thatdifferent invaders committed mass assassinations of Gurjars and differentinvaders and foreign rulers snatched their lands and powers from them as Gurjar community always created resistance against foreign invaders and cruel rulers time to time for 1000 years right up to Revolt of 1857. During these resistances, they lost their powers, properties, and miserably came to end in British era. It is the beginning of deep pains of the poverty andcontinues until date that developed an inferiority complex in entire Gurjar community. It is always my subject matter to have brain storming, how to reinstate the prosperity of Gurjar community, ...

DR. MUHAMMAD AMJAD SAQIB (Sitara-a-Imtiaz) Email: amjadsaqib1@gmail.com Cell: +92 300 842 0495 A medical graduate from King Edward Medical College, Dr. Amjad Saqib was selected for the nation’s topmost bureaucratic institution, the elite Civil Service of Pakistan with great distinction in 1985. Having stood out as a public servant, right when his career was about to move towards higher echelons, he resigned in 2003 with the intent to dedicate himself to becoming a social entrepreneur and make a difference in societal change through Akhuwat – which had already been founded and launched by him in 2001 and had meanwhile started taking strides towards the force it was to become. The salient feature of his public service career – one that perhaps changed the course of his life – was his last assignment, a five-year stint as general manager of the Punjab Rural Support Programme (PRSP) from 1998 to 2003. It is here that he had the opportunity to closely examine the various initiatives of...
