From Jatland Wiki
Barojwar (बरोजवार) is gotra of Jats. This gotra started from their ancestoral king Biraja (बिराजा) or Viraja (विराजा) of Nagavansh. [1]
Shalya Parva, Mahabharata/Book IX Chapter 44 gives the list of combatants who came to the ceremony for investing Kartikeya with the status of generalissimo. Shloka 81 names Viraja along with Tittira and Dharan.
