    Distribution of Jats

    Jat Gotras in Jaipur City

    Jaipur is the Capital of Rajasthan. The Jaipur region is important Jat belt. We do not have any combined report which can give details about the distribution of Jat gotras in Jaipur region.

    I thought to study the distribution pattern of Jat gotras in the Jaipur district. There are no ready records or studies as such. So I took the membership list of Jat Samaj Samiti, Jaipur Published under the title Jat Directory and Smarika 1999-2000. It gives areawise detailed names, addresses, phone numbers of Jat families living in Jaipur city.

    The two attributes Jat gotra and colony were brought on excel file, tabulated and shorted out. There is an interesting result which gives which jat gotra lives in which colony. This table is available with me and if any member is interested it can be uploaded. The following table is an abstract of the detailed table that gives population of each gotra as a number out of total jats (3920) in the directory arranged in alphabetical order.


    The Jat Directory gives details of 3920 Jat families. There are large number of people who use Chaudhary, Arya or Jat as surnames. Some people use no surname. Out of this list 812 Jats had used Chaudhary as surname. 1218 Jat family heads had Arya or Jat as surname or no surname. Many people around Jaipur use Jat surname. Out of these people 1890 Jat family heads with gotra as surnames were selected and tabulated. These 1890 people are from 356 gotras. The figure after gotra is the count out of 1890 from which we can roughly assess comparative population of that gotra. Here is the list:

    Conclusions

    1. The above analysis reveals that the biggest five gotra in Jaipur are Punia (123), followed by Godara (71), Dhaka (64), Jakhar (42) and Chaupda (39).

    2. The gotras equal or more than 1 percent of Jat population in Jaipur city include following 27 gotras given in increasing order:Kulhari (18), Burdak (19), Dhankar (19) Ola (19), Chahar (20), Maan (20), Dagar (21), Dhayal (22), Rolania (22), Beniwal (23), Ghosalia (23), Nitharwal (23), Jhajharia (24), Samota (24), Saran (24), Todawat (25), Bhakar (26), Lamba (27), Mahla (27), Meel (28), Katewa (31), Dudi (36), Chaupda (39), Jakhar (42), Dhaka (6), Godara (71), Punia (123).

    3. The activities in which these people are involved was also recorded in their format which finds mention in the Directory. Majority of the people are in service and have their own house in Jaipur. Other activities are business, shops, contractorship, property dealership, agriculture, dairy, politics, paultry farming etc.

    4. Number of Gotras with single entry is 159. These people seem to have started coming to Jaipur late, hence less number.

    5. Jats started coming to Jaipur for settlement from early eighties, the maximum influx being in nineties.
