Origin

The origin of Nehra is derived from Nehra mount in Sindh where they were the rulers. Nehras are descendent of Narishyanta [1](Narhari), son of Vaivasvata Manu and belong to solar race of Kshatriyas. The Shekhawati area earlier was known as Nehrawati after Nehras. [2]. They are said to be a branch of the Sindhu gotra. [3] They are considered to be same as the Neuri of the ancient Greeks and Naharians of the Egyptian Pharaohs. [4]

Mention of Nehra in epics

In Ramayana

In Ramayana - Balakanda Sarga 22 when King Dasharatha sends Rama and Lakshmana along with Sage Vishvamitra, in their course of travel, Vishvamitra imparts a secret knowledge by which Nairritas can not charge them either sleeping or unvigilant. [I-22-13]. Here Nairritas may be identified with Nehras.

न च सुप्तम् प्रमत्तम् वा धर्ष इष्यन्ति नैरृताः ।
न बाह्वोः सदृशो वीर्ये पृथिव्याम् अस्ति कश्चन ॥१-२२-१३॥

In Rigveda

Nehra is a Rigvedic clan according to the historian Bhim Singh Dahiya. In Rigveda it is mentioned as Narya (RV VIII/24/29).

आ नार्यस्य दक्षिणा वयश्वानेतु सोमिनः |
सथूरं च राधः शतवत सहस्रवत || (RV VIII/24/29)
ā nāryasya dakṣiṇā vyaśvānetu sominaḥ |
sthūraṃ ca rādhaḥ śatavat sahasravat || (RV VIII/24/29)

A king of this tribe is mentioned as a great donor, son of Nara (I/112/9)

याभिः सिन्धुं मधुमन्तमसश्चतं वसिष्ठं याभिरजरावजिन्वतम |
याभिः कुत्सं शरुतर्यं नर्यमावतं ताभिर... || (I/112/9)


yābhiḥ sindhuṃ madhumantamasaścataṃ vasiṣṭhaṃ yābhirajarāvajinvatam |
yābhiḥ kutsaṃ śrutaryaṃ naryamāvataṃ tābhir... || (I/112/9)

Meaning - "Wherewith ye quickened the most sweet exhaustless flood, and comforted Vasistha, ye who ne'er decay; And to Srutarya, Kutsa, Narya gave your help,--Come hither unto us, O Asvins, with those aids."

The Rig Veda/Mandala 1/Hymn 54 shloka 6 writes about Narya as under:

तवमाविथ नर्यं तुर्वशं यदुं तवं तुर्वीतिं वय्यंशतक्रतो |
तवं रथमेतशं कर्त्व्ये धने तवं पुरो नवतिं दम्भयो नव || (I.54.6)
tvamāvitha naryaṃ turvaśaṃ yaduṃ tvaṃ turvītiṃ vayyaṃśatakrato |
tvaṃ rathametaśaṃ kṛtvye dhane tvaṃ puro navatiṃ dambhayo nava || (I.54.6)

Meaning - "Thou helpest Narya, Turvasa, and Yadu, and Vayya's son Turviti, Satakratu! Thou helpest horse and car in final battle thou breakest down the nine-and-ninety castles."

In Mahabharata

Vana Parva, Mahabharata/Book III Chapter 164 also mentions in shloka 30 where Arjuna learns about arms of Nairritas along with Gandharvas, Marutas, Siddhas etc. :

साध्यं पैतामहं चैव गन्धर्वॊरगरक्षसाम
वैष्णवानि च सर्वाणि नैरृतानि तदैव च
मथ्गतानि च यानीह सर्वास्त्राणि कुरूथ्वह (III.164.30)

In Vana Parva, Mahabharata/Book III Chapter 170 Arjuna destroys the city of the Daityas and mentions Nairritas along with Guhyas. (III.170.45)

गुह्यकानां च संग्रामे नैरृतानां तदैव च
झषाणां गजवक्त्राणाम उलूकानां तदैव च (III.170.45)

Bhisma Parva, Mahabharata/Book VI Chapter 10 mentions the name of province of Nehras along with Shakas, Matsyas, Anartas and Nishadas in shloka 50 as under:

शका निषादा निषधास तदैवानर्तनैरृताः
दुगूलाः परतिमत्स्याश च कुशलाः (VI.10.50)

Bhisma Parva, Mahabharata/Book VI Chapter 20 mentions about warriors of the Andhakas, Vrishnis and the Bhojas races, as also by the warriors of Nairritas and Surashtras well-armed and well-acquainted with the uses of weapons, and which was led by Kritavarman, proceeded towards the south of the army. (VI.20.14)

महारदैर अन्धकवृष्णिभॊजैः; सौराष्ट्रकैर नैरृतैर आत्तशस्त्रैः
बृहथ्बलः कृतवर्माभिगुप्तॊ; बलं तवथीयं थक्षिणतॊ ऽभिपाति (VI.20.14)

Shalya Parva, Mahabharata/Book IX Chapter 44 mentions names of combatants All of them came to the ceremony for investing Kartikeya with the status of generalissimo. The gods then made over to Skanda the celestial host, invincible, abounding with celestial troops, capable of destroying the enemies of the gods, and of forms like that of Vishnu.(IX.44.25)

तदा देव ददुस तस्मै सेनां नैरृतसांकुलाम
देवशत्रुक्षयकरीम अजय्यां विश्वरूपिणीम (IX.44.25)

Shalya Parva, Mahabharata/Book IX Chapter 45 mentions large bands of the mothers, that became the companions of Kumara. One of them was Nairriti (IX.45.49)

सा सेना नैरृती भीमा सघण्टॊच्छ्रितकेतना
सभेरी शङ्खमुरजा सायुधा सपताकिनी
शारथी थयौर इवाभाति जयॊतिर्भिर उपशॊभिता

In Puranas

Nahra (नहरा) & Nara (नारा) : The Markandeya Purana mentions them as Niharas. [5] Nāhrā and Nārā are treated as different clans although they may be one. [6]

History of Nehra clan

According to Bhim Singh Dahiya they are to be identified with Nara or Nehra clan of the Jats, the Nairi of West Asia. Assyrian inscriptions of Shalmaneser I (ca. 1270 BC) first mention a loose confederation called the Urartu or Nairi in North-East Anatolia, in the region around Lake Van. [7]

Nehra by Megasthenes

There is mention of Nehra people by Greek writer Megasthenes (350BC- 290BC) in his book Indica as Narae, the people who were enclosed by the loftiest of Indian mountains, Capitalia. The inhabitants on the other side of this mountain work extensive mines of gold and silver.[8] (See at S.No. - Jat clans as described by Megasthenes)

Nehra in Sindh

Nehras were rulers of Nehrun state in Sindh at the time of attack on Sindh by Muhammad bin Qasim in 710. Present Hyderabad (Pakistan) city was settled on the land of Nehrun. The Hyderabad city was then named Nehrun Kot and was called the heart of the Mehran. [9]

Nehra in Jangladesh

James Tod in "Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan" has mentioned that Bika - the sixth son of Joda was spreading his rule in Jangladesh. He decided to build capital of his state on land belonging to Nehra jats. Nehras agreed to give the land for capital on the condition that their clan name will be included in the name of capital. So the name of caital of the state of Bika was : Bika + Nehra = Bikaner. The city of Bikaner was founded in 1488. [10]

Nehra rulers in Rajasthan

After Sindh Nehras have been mentioned by James Tod to be living in Jangladesh area of Rajasthan when the Rathores annexed it. [11] According to James Tod, the spot which Bika selected for his capital, was the birthright of a Nehra Jat, who would only concede it for this purpose on the condition that his name should be linked in perpetuity with its surrender. Naira, or Nera, was the name of the proprietor, which Beeka added to his own, thus composing that of the future capital, Bikaner.[12]

The Sundha Hill (Jodhpur) inscription of Chechigadeva mentions the Salya (Syal), the Sanghas, and the Nahras. [13] [14]

Nehra jats ruled in Rajasthan over an area of 200 sqaire miles. In fifteenth century Nehras ruled at Narhar in Jhunjhunu district. At Naharpur, 16 miles down below the Nehra Hill, their another group ruled. At the end of 16th century and beginning of 17th century there was a war between Nehras and Muslim rulers. The Nehra chieftain Jhunjha or Jujhar Singh won the war and captured Jhunjhunu town. Later at the time of victory ceremony he was deceived by Shekhawat Rajputs and killed. Jhunjhunu town in Rajasthan was established in the memory of Jujhar Singh Nehra the above Jat chieftain. There were 1760 villages under the rule of Nehras in Rajasthan.

About Narhar, Thakur Deshraj writes that it was ruled by Nehra Jats. Nehra jats ruled in Rajasthan over an area of 200 square miles. The Nehra hills of Rajasthan were their territory. To the west of Jhunjhunu town is a Hill 1684 feet above see-level and visible from miles around. [1]. This hill near Jhunjhunu town is still known as Nehra Hill in their memory. [15] Another hill was known as Maura which was famous in memory of Mauryas. Nehra in Jaipur was the first capital in olden times. In the fifteenth century Nehras ruled at Narhar, where they had a fort. At Naharpur, 16 miles down below the Nehra Hill, there another group ruled. [15]The present Shekhawati at that time was known as Nehrawati. [16]

At the end of 16th century and beginning of 17th century there was a war between Nehras and Muslim rulers. When Nehras were defeated by nawabs, they used to offer gifts to the Nawabs on special occasions, due to this they were also called 'Shahi bhentwal'. [15]

After nawab Kasim Khan Husain Khan became nawab of Bagar. His some descendants lived at Bagar and Nunia Gothra. Husain Khan’s younger brother Sikandar Khan lived at Khudana. Another younger brother of nawab, Bahlol Khan founded Islampur in 1622. Bahlol Khan’s son Jalal Khan constructed a well in Islampur, which is known as “Jalal Khan ka kuan”.

The pathans of Narhar unitedly opposed the Jagir given to Shardul Singh Shekhawat. [17] Jujhar Singh Nehra (1664 – 1730) played an important role in fighting with the Nawabs. His father was a faujdar of Nawabs. Shardul Singh sought the help of Jujhar Singh Nehra. The Jats through Jujhar Singh and Rajputs through Sardul Singh agreed upon a proposal to fight united against Muslim rulers and if the Nawab were defeated Jujhar Singh would be appointed the Chieftain. [15]

Jujhar Singh Nehra, one day found the right opportunity and attacked Nawabs at Jhunjhunu and Narhar. He defeated the army of Nawab Sadulla Khan on Saturday, aghan sudi 8 samvat 1787 (1730 AD). The Nehra chieftain Jhunjha or Jujhar Singh won the war and captured Jhunjhunu town. [15]This is clear from the following poetry in Rajasthani Language -

सत्रह सौ सत्यासी, आगण मास उदार Satrahasau Satyasī, Agahan Mās Udār
सादे लीन्हो झूंझणूं, सुदी आठें शनिवार Sade līnho jhūnjhanūn, Sudī Āthen Shanivār

The Muslim Nawab 'Sadulla Khan', in charge of Jhunjhunu, was defeated jointly by Shardul Singh and Jujhar Singh Nehra. But, as per Kunwar Panne Singh's book 'Rankeshari Jujhar Singh', Later at the time of victory ceremony Jujhar Singh was deceived and killed by Shekhawats after he was appointed the chieftain. Kunwar Panne Singh has written that after the tilak ceremony of chieftainship, Rajputs attacked him when he was at a solitary place. Jujhar Singh was surprized at this incidence and when he asked what kind of sardari he was being offered this way. He was replied that we (Rajputs) are not fools, we are making you not the live sardar but a dead sardar. You should have remained vigilent. When this news of treachery spread in in the city, there was anarchy in the Jat army and Jats became furious. It is said that at this moment a Charan sung a poetry to Shardul Singh. [18] It is clear from the poetry in Rajasthani Language -

सादे लीन्हो झूंझणूं, लीनो अमर पटै Sade, linho Jhunjhunu, Lino amar patai
बेटे पोते पड़ौते, पीढी सात लटै Bete pote padaute pidhi sat latai
Meaning - This state was taken by Jhunjha from Sadullekhan, he became immortal. Now your seven generations would rule over it.

Jhunjhunu town in Rajasthan was established in the memory of Jujhar Singh Nehra the above Jat chieftain. [15]

नेहरा जाटों का इतिहास

नेहरा पहाड़ पर लिखित राजेंद्र कसवा के उपन्यास का आवरण चित्र

नेहरा भारत और पाकिस्तान में जाटों का एक गोत्र है. ये राजस्थान, दिल्ली, हरयाणा, पंजाब, उत्तर प्रदेश और पाकिस्तान में पाए जाते है. नेहरा की उत्पत्ति वैवस्वत मनु के पुत्र नरिष्यंत (नरहरी) से मानी जाती है. पहले ये पाकिस्तान के सिंध प्रान्त में नेहरा पर्वत पर निवास करते थे. वहां से चल कर राजस्थान के जांगलदेश भू-भाग में बसे और झुंझुनू में नेहरा पहाड़ पर आकर निवास करने लगे.

राजस्थान में नेहरा जाटों का तकरीबन २०० वर्ग मील भूमि पर किसी समय शासन रहा था. उनके ही नाम पर झुंझुनू के निकट पर्वत आज भी नेहरा पहाड़ कहलाता है. दूसरा पहाड़ जो मौरा (मौड़ा) है, मौर्य लोगों के नाम से मशहूर है.नेहरा लोगों में सरदार झुन्झा अथवा जुझार सिंह बड़े मशहूर योद्धा हुए हैं, उन्हीं के नाम से झुंझुनू जैसा नगर प्रसिद्द है.

पंद्रहवीं सदी में नेहरा लोगों का नरहड़ में शासन था. वहां पर उनका एक किला भी था. उससे १६ मील पश्चिम में नेहरा पहाड़ के नीचे नाहरपुर में उनके दूसरे दल का राज्य था. सोलहवीं सदी के अंतिम भाग में और सत्रहवीं सदी के प्रारंभ में नेहरा लोगों का मुसलमान शासकों से युद्ध हुआ. अंत में नेहरा लोगों ने मुसलमानों से संधि करली.

नेहरा लोगों के प्रसिद्द सरदार जुझार सिंह का जन्म संवत १७२१ विक्रमी श्रावण महीने में हुआ था. उनके पिता नवाब के यहाँ फौज के सरदार यानि फौजदार थे. युवा होने पर सरदार जुझार सिंह नवाब की सेना में जनरल बन गए. उनके दिल में यह बात पैदा हो गयी कि भारत में जाट साम्राज्य स्थापित हो. जुझार सिंह ने पंजाब, भरतपुर, ब्रज के जाट राजाओं और गोकुला के बलिदान की चर्चा सुन रखी थी. उनकी हार्दिक इच्छा थी कि नवाबशाही के खिलाफ जाट लोग मिल कर बगावत करें.

उन्हीं दिनों सरदार जुझार सिंह की मुलाकात एक राजपूत से हुई. वह किसी रिश्ते के जरिये नवाब के यहाँ नौकर हो गया. उसका नाम शार्दुल सिंह था. दोनों का सौदा तय हो गया. शार्दुल सिंह ने वचन दिया कि इधर से नवाबशाही के नष्ट करने पर हम तुम्हें (सरदार जुझार सिंह को) अपना सरदार मान लेंगे. अवसर पाकर सरदार जुझार सिंह ने झुंझुनू और नरहड़ के नवाबों को परास्त कर दिया और बाकि मुसलमानों को भगा दिया.

कुंवर पन्ने सिंह द्वारा लिखित 'रणकेसरी जुझार सिंह' नमक पुस्तक में अंकित है कि सरदार जुझार सिंह को दरबार करके सरदार बनाया गया. सरदार जुझार सिंह का तिलक करने के बाद एकांत में पाकर विश्वास घात कर शेखावतों ने सरदार जुझार सिंह को धोखे से मार डाला. इस घृणित कृत्य का समाचार ज्यों ही नगर में फैला हाहाकार मच गया. जाट सेनाएं बिगड़ गयी. फिर भी कुछ लोग विपक्षियों द्वारा मिला लिए गए. कहा जाता है कि उस समय चारण ने शार्दुल सिंह के पास आकर कहा था -

सादे लीन्हो झूंझणूं, लीनो अमर पटै
बेटे पोते पड़ौते, पीढी सात लटै

अर्थात - सादुल्लेखान से इस राज्य को झून्झा (जुझार सिंह) ने लिया था, वह तो अमर हो गया. अब इसमें तेरे वंशज सात पीढी तक राज करेंगे.

जुझार अपनी जाती के लिए शहीद हो गया. वह संसार में नहीं रहे , किन्तु उनकी कीर्ति आज तक गाई जाती है. झुंझुनू शहर का नाम जुझार सिंह के नाम पर झुन्झुनू पड़ा है.

शेखावतों ने जाट-क्षत्रियों के विद्रोह को दबाने के लिए तथा उन्हें प्रसन्न रखने के लिए निम्नलिखित आज्ञायेँ जारी की गयी -

  1. लगान की रकम उस गाँव के जाट मुखिया की राय से ली जाया करेगी.
  2. जमीन की पैमयश गाँव के लम्बरदार किया करेंगे.
  3. गोचर भूमि के ऊपर कोई कर नहीं होगा.
  4. जितनी भूमि पर चारे के लिए गुवार बोई जावेगी उस पर कोई कर नहीं होगा.
  5. गाँव में चोरी की हुई खोज का खर्चा तथा राज के अधिकारियों के गाँव में आने पर उन पर किया गया खर्च गाँव के लगान में से काट दिया जावेगा. जो नजर राज के ठाकुरों को दी जायेगी वह लगान में वाजिब होगी.
  6. जो जमीन गाँव के बच्चों को पढ़ाने वाले ब्राहमणों को दो जायेगी उसका कोई लगान नहीं होगा. जमीन दान करने का हक़ गाँव के मुखिया को होगा.
  7. किसी कारण से कोई लड़की अपने मायके (पीहर) में रहेगी तो उस जमीन पर कोई लगान न होगा, जिसे लड़की अपने लिए जोतेगी.
  8. गाँव का मुखिया किसी काम से बुलाया जायेगा तो उसका खर्च राज देगा.
  9. गाँव के मुखिया को जोतने के लिए जमीन फुफ्त दी जायेगी. सारे गाँव का जो लगान होगा उसका दसवां भाग दिया जायेगा.
  10. मुखिया वही माना जायेगा जिसे गाँव के लोग चाहेंगे. यदि सरदार गाँव में पधारेंगे तो उन के खान=पान व स्वागत का कुल खर्च लगान में से काट दिया जायेगा.
  11. गाँव के टहलकर (कमीण) लोगों को जमीन मुफ्त दी जायेगी.
  12. जितनी भूमि पर आबादी होगी, उसका कोई लगान न होगा.
  13. इस खानदान में पैदा होने वाले सभी उत्तराधिकारी इन नियमों का पालन करेंगे.

कुछ दिनों तक इनमें से कुछ नियम आंशिक रूप से अनेक ठिकानों द्वारा ज्यों-के-त्यों अथवा कुछ हेर-फेर के साथ मने जाते रहे. कुछ ने एक प्रकार से कटाई इन नियमों को मेट दिया.

झुंझुनू का मुसलमान सरदार जिसे कि सरदार जुझार सिंह ने परास्त किया था , सादुल्ला नाम से मशहूर था. झुंझुनू किस समय सादुल्लाखान से जुझार सिंह ने छीना इस बात का वर्णन निम्न काव्य में मिलता है.

सत्रह सौ सत्यासी, आगण मास उदार
सादे लीन्हो झूंझणूं, सुदी आठें शनिवार

अर्थात - संवत १७८७ में अघन मास के सुदी पक्ष में शनिवार के दिन झुंझुनू को सादुल्लाखान से जुझार सिंह ने छीना.

सरदार जुझार सिंह के बाद ज्यों-ज्यों समय बीतता गया उनकी जाट जाति के लोग पराधीन होते गए. यहाँ तक कि वह अपनी नागरिक स्वाधीनता को भी खो बैठे. एक दिन जो राजा और सरदार थे उनको भी बादमें पक्के मकान बनाने के लिए जमीन खरीदनी पड़ती थी. उन पर बाईजी का लाग लगा और भेंट, न्यौता-कांसा अदि अनेक तरह की बेहूदी लाग और लगा दी गई.
