Ranghar are a community of Muslim Rajputs in the Indian states of Haryana, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh;[1] and in Sindh (Muhajirs) and Punjab in Pakistan.[2]
History and origin
The Ranghar were classified as an "agricultural tribe" by the British Raj administration. This was often taken to be synonymous with the classification of martial race, and some Ranghars were recruited to the British Indian Army,[3] especially in Skinner's Horse.[4]
