Rājpūt (from Sanskritrājaputra meaning "son of a king"), also called Thākur, is a large multi-component cluster of castes, kin bodies, and local groups, sharing social status and ideology of genealogical descent originating from the northern part of the Indian subcontinent. The term Rajput covers various patrilineal clans historically associated with warriorhood: several clans claim Rajput status, although not all claims are universally accepted. According to modern scholars, almost all Rajput clans originated from peasant or pastoral communities.
Over time, the Rajputs emerged as a social class comprising people from a variety of ethnic and geographical backgrounds. From the 12th to 16th centuries, the membership of this class became largely hereditary, although new claims to Rajput status continued to be made in later centuries. Several Rajput-ruled kingdoms played a significant role in many regions of central and northern India from the seventh century onwards.
The Rajput population and the former Rajput states are found in northern, western, central and eastern India, as well as southern and eastern Pakistan. These areas include Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana, Gujarat, Eastern Punjab, Western Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, West Benga King of Ajmer from to For other uses, see Prithviraj Chauhan (disambiguation). Prithviraja III (IAST: Pṛthvī-rāja; 22 May – December ), popularly known as Prithviraj Chauhan or Rai Pithora, was a king from the Chauhan (Chahamana) dynasty who ruled the territory of Sapadalaksha, with his capital at Ajmer in present-day Rajasthan in north-western India. Ascending the throne as a minor in CE, Prithviraj inherited a kingdom which stretched from Thanesar in the north to Jahazpur (Mewar) in the south, which he aimed to expand by military actions against neighbouring kingdoms, most notably defeating the Chandelas. Prithviraj led a coalition of several Rajput kings and defeated the Ghurid army led by Muhammad of Ghor near Taraori in However, in , Muhammad returned with an army of Turkish mounted archers and defeated the Rajput army on the same battlefield. Prithviraj was captured and summarliy executed, although his minor son Govindaraja was reinstated by Muhammad as his puppet ruler in Ajmer. His defeat at Tarain is seen as a landmark event in the Islamic conquest of India, and has been described in several semi-legendary accounts, most notably the Prithviraj Raso. The extant inscriptions from Prithviraj's reign are few in number and were not issued by the king himself. Much of the information about him comes from the medieval legendary chronicles. Besides the Muslim accounts of Battles of Tarain, he has been mentioned in several medieval kavyas (epic poems) by Hindu and Jain authors. These include Prithviraja Vijaya, Hammira Mahakavya and Prithviraj Raso. These texts contain eulogistic descriptions, and are, therefore, not entirely reliable.Prithviraja Vijaya is the only surviving literary text from the reign of Prithviraj.Prithviraj Raso, which popularized Prithviraj as a great king, is purported to be written by his court poet Chand Bardai. However, it contains many exaggerated accounts, muc We also published the following articles recently Two MLAs attempt to take oath in Raj .Prithviraj Chauhan

BAP to fight for recognition of Bhili
Rajkumar Roat, a two-time MLA from Chorasi and founding member of BAP, argued that Rajasthan doesn’t have any dominance over any single language and called the demand for declaring Rajasthani as the second official language of Rajasthan a divisive act.
The party, formed a month before the assembly polls, has won three seats—Aspur, Chorasi, and Dhariyawa. It came into existence after splitting from the Bhartiya Tribal Party (BAP). During the polls, it promised to fight for recognition for the Bhili language in its manifesto.
He told TOI, “The way two MLAs, Anshuman Singh Bhati (Kolayat) and Ravindra Singh Bhati (Sheo), attempted to take the oath in Rajasthani in the Assembly, despite it being against the protocol, shouldn’t have been done. Secondly, it could have been done by the BAP MLAs too, but we have shown respect for the traditions and rules.”
He referred to the two MLAs who tried to take the oath in the Assembly in Rajasthani, despite the pro-tem Speaker, Kalicharan Saraf, objecting to it.
A delegation of BAP leaders has sought time from chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma to discuss the issues in the Tribal Sub-Plan area.
He argued that geographically, the Bhili language is spoken in the largest part of the state, spread in two divisions: Banswara and Udaipur. “Our demand is not to declare Bhili as the state’s main language but to add it to the Eight Schedule of our Constitution. It will allow the governments to protect the language by introducing it in schools and by adding it to competitive exams held in tribal sub-plan areas,” said Roat.
BAP was formed months before the assembly polls after a split from the Bhartiya Tribal Party.
