بابائے گجراں صوبہ سرحد جناب بوستان خان کھٹانہ مرحوم نے 21 دسمبر 1958 کو تقریر فرمائی تھی اس سے کچھ اقتباسات پیش خدمت ھیں. " پچپن سے ھمارے دماغ میں یہ بٹھایا گیا تھا کہ گجر اس شخص کو کہتے ھیں جو بھینس پالتا ھے اور دودھ بیچتا ھے. چونکہ ھم گجر تھے. اس لئے لوگ ھمیں طعنہ دیا کرتے تھے اور ھمیں حقیر سمجھتے تھے. اپنے آپ کو پٹھان وغیرہ ظاہر کر کے اپنی برتری ظاہر کرتے تھے. ھم جب بھی اپنے اردگرد نظر ڈالتے تھے تو جتنے گجروں کو ھم جانتے تھے. ان میں ھمیں کوئی خاص با اقتدار آدمی نظر نہیں آتا تھا. اس کے برعکس پٹھانوں میں بڑے بڑے نواب/خان تھے اور تاریخ میں ان کا اکثر ذکر آتا تھا. اس کے علاوہ کسی افسر کے سامنے اپنے آپ کو گجر ظاہر کیا جاتا تھا تو وہ بری نظر سے دیکھتا تھا. یہاں تک کہ ھمیں یہ بھی کہا جاتا تھا کہ سرکاری ملازمتوں میں گجر بھرتی نہیں کئے جاتے. سوسائٹی میں گجروں کی یہ حالت دیکھ کر یہ قدرتی امر تھا کہ انسان میں احساس کمتری پیدا ھو جائے. اس لئے کبھی ذات پات کا مسئلہ چھیڑ دیا جاتا تو میری پیشانی پر پسینہ آ جاتا تھا.

Khatana Gotra belong to Gujjar Kusha Era and Gujjar Khatana rulers used the same title as Gujjar Kushans. Rajatiraya ( Rajaon ka Raja) and Saha-nu Shahi ( Shahon ka Shah) were the title used by the Gujjars during the days of Gujjar Kushan Empire. Later the same title was used by Gujjar Pratihar as PMP ( Param Bhattaraka Maharajadhiraja Parmeshwar). The Mughals copied the title of Gujjar Kushans as Shah-nu-Sahi or Shahanshah, since they were ruled by the Gujjars during the Gujjar Kushan Empire. Samarkand was the winter capital of Gujjar Kushan which is located in Uzbekistan, the birth place of Babar. Here is the historical evidence of Gujjar Emperor Vijai Singh Khatana.
