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.

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...

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.
