Talk:Gakhar

Hi,

Gen. Cunningham identifies the Ghakkars with Gangaridae of Dionysius & Tocharians. Robinson identified the Gandaridae with the ancient Yaudheyas. Diodorus mentions Gangaridai and Prasii as one nation, Historian Hemchandra Ray Chowdhury writes: "It may reasonably be inferred from the statements of the Greek and Latin writers that about the time of Alexander's invasion, the Gangaridai were a very powerful nation, and either formed a dual monarchy with the Pasioi [Prasii], or were closely associated with them on equal terms in a common cause against the foreign invader. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.23.212.68 (talk) 03:45, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

Rajay and Gakhars

According to babur pothwar at time of 1519 rulled by gakhars as hathi khan and tatar khan ,tatar khan khan was uncle of hathi khan and other than gakhars janjuas were the second power in pothwar (malik hast khan) was the janjua chief. tatar khan's headquarter was pharwala which is always been a gakhar shahi fort built over a hindu temple. And raja is a status or title just like prime minister. We Alkhamdulillah had a piece of land from hzara to jehlum till 700 plus year as rulers and for a time the area was extended to gakahar mandi to gilgit.As we were the ruler of a part of hind so we used and few of us are still using the title of rajah . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ali aurangzeb khan (talk • contribs) 09:35, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
