Out of place info removed from demographics
I just removed the following sentences from the beginning of the "Demographics" section:
Gurjari-Raga is a ragni of the Gurjars.They were worshipper of lord Krishna as tradition tells.This ragni is sung at the time of worship viz morning. Radha, the consort of Lord Krishna was a Gurjari, belonging to village Barsana, near Mathura.[1]
I don't know if that should be fit somewhere else into the article, but it definitely doesn't belong in the section describing the Gujjar's distribution and location. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:57, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
Categories: Hindu Communities
User: Winston786 added [[Category:Hindu communities]] to the article. I removed it because the article itself says that they are both Hindu and Muslim. Winston786 re-added, saying that I should just also add [[Category:Muslim communities]]. I believe that this is incorrect, because it is actually factually wrong (as far as I read this article) to call the Gurjar either a "Hindu" or "Muslim" community. Rather, it is a tribe/ethnic group, whose members happen to include both Muslims and Hindus. For example, on the article People of the United States, we could conceivably add every single religious community known in the U.S., but that would be incorrect, because, as a whole, the people of the U.S. are not any one religious community. Similarly, the Gurjar are not, as a whole, a Hindu community; they contain Hindu communities, but are not one. Thus, I believe the category should be removed to more accurately reflect the Gurjar people. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:20, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
Gujjars have traditionally always been Hindus, majority of them still are(about 78%). Islam and Sikh religion have come later, some Gujjars started following these religions later. Gujjar community is on of the Hindu communities coz people in this community follow Hinduism, you can have a special category(if u want to) for "Muslim community" or "Sikh community".(written by User:Winston786; I ha missed the close on a "nowiki" which made this not show up.
- But you just said yourself that 22% of them don't follow Hinduism. So how can you say that the Gujjars, as a whole, are a "Hindi community"? It looks to me like they have a subset which are Hindu, but they are not, in their entirety, a Hindu community. If that number were somewhere over 90%, I could see the logic in saying, "Well, they're pretty much almost all Hindus", but 78% is not quite high enough for me. I'd like other opinions, though. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:23, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
As I said, All gujjars have traditionally always been Hindus, majority of them still are, it is a Hindu community, if a part of them have started following other religions does not mean its not one. 78%(though that number is categorized as a huge majority) or 90% or less than 50% it has been always a Hindu community i.e people from this community are followers of Hinduism. You can add "Muslim communities" or "Sikh communities" category too.Winston786 (talk) 04:32, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Apologies, but what you are saying doesn't make sense. If a sizable minority do not follow Hinduism, then it's not a Hindu community. Maybe it used to be a Hindu community, but it sounds based on both what you and the article are saying, that it no longer is. It is simply a flat out contradiction to say that 22% of them don't follow Hinduism then to say that "people from this community are followers of Hinduism." In fact, based on your own words, only some (a majority, granted, but not an overwhelming one) are Hindus. Qwyrxian (talk) 04:37, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
You are not making any sense, apparently its a community whose majority of people are followers of Hinduism hence it is a Hindu community and i never said "some" are Hindus, majority(78% is a HUGE and clear majority) are Hindus, as I said, you can add "Muslim communities" or "Sikh communities" category too but don't delete "Hindu Community" category.Winston786 (talk) 04:58, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- I asked at WP:Wikiproject Hinduism for some assistance here, although I don't know how active they are. Maybe it's that we're disagreeing about what "Hindu community" means. To me, a Hindu community is, by definition, one in which all or almost all of the members of the community are Hinduism. You're asserting that it means "One in which the majority of members are Hindus". That's why, for me, it's actually impossible to add "Muslim communities", because my opinion is that the category is not meant to be added to just any group that has some number of Muslims (or Hindus, or whatever). Qwyrxian (talk) 05:24, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
I am not saying in which "majority of members are Hindus" but in which a significant number of percentage of people are, though in this case majority are.Winston786 (talk) 05:57, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, I think it's ok to keep the Category:Hindu communiites.Even Brahmins have followes of Islam among them.For example see this page Muslim Tyagi.Originally all these communities, take it Gurjar, Tyagi, Rajput, Jat, Patidar and many more, were Hindus only.These communities still form a big chunk of Hindu population or we can say are the lead communities of Hindu religion.RegardsMkrestin (talk) 13:26, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Like Jats, this is clearly a tribal group rather than a caste group which has Hindu, Sikh and Muslim adherents, therefore it would be innappropriate to add it to Hindu Communities, as the implication is, it is solely a Hindu community. Thanks --Sikh-History 14:05, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
Saying it once again, Gujjars have traditionally always been Hindus, majority of them still are, it is a Hindu community, if a part of them have started following other religions does not mean its not one. 78%(though that number is categorized as a huge majority) or 90% or less than 50% it has been always a Hindu community i.e "significant number of people from this community are followers of Hinduism". You can add "Muslim communities" or "Sikh communities" category too.Winston786 (talk) 16:14, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Winston786, you can repeat yourself over and over again, but some of us are claiming that you are defining "Hindu community" incorrectly. We are saying that a Hindu community is not one in which a "significant number of the people are followers of Hinduism." We are saying that, by definition, a Hindu community is one that is entirely or almost entirely Hindu. If the category were called "Hindu-dominated community" or "Hindu-majority community", I would agree with you. But if there were a category called "Male community", I would expect all of the members, or nearly all, to be male. The adjective (Hindu) is modifying the noun (community), which refers to the entire group as a whole. In exactly the same way that a "black horse" should be almost entirely black, and we would not label a horse with a "signficant amount of black coloring" as "black" without clarifying (black and white; striped, dappled, mottled, etc.), we cannot say that a community is Hindu unless the community as a whole is actually defined by its Hinduness. Qwyrxian (talk) 21:56, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Two more things: to extend my above horse analogy, that's why we can't also add "Muslim community"--it is impossible to simultaneously assert "That is a black horse" and "That is a white horse." One may assert, "That is a black-and-white horse", meaning we could say this is a "Hindu and Muslim community" but not, separately, a Hindu community and a Muslim community. Finally, though, Mkrestin's argument does make some sense to me, in that the historical notion of this as a Hindu community may have some capital. Qwyrxian (talk) 22:28, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- Qwyrxian, Only you are finding it incorrect nobody else, and you horse anology is incorrect for this situation, doesn't really make any sense here. You can still add a seperate category for "muslim community" if u want to.Winston786 (talk) 05:58, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, User: Sikh-history also agrees with me, while User:Mkreskin agrees with you (although for a slightly different reason). And I actually cannot add Category:Muslim communities, because I actually believe that would be incorrect. I'll keep waiting though, and see if anyone else comments.

Huh? 70 villages in Delhi
There are near about 70 Gurjar dominated villages in Delhi???.
Lohmod Lohia: (about 3 - 4 village in South delhi i.e. Aayanagar, Ghitorni & Nathupur) Dedha: (about 24 villages in East Delhi) Baisoya :(6 villages mainly in the central zone—Pilanji, Aliganj, Khairpur, Joodbagh, Purani Pilanji, Garhi-Jhariya Marhiya) Chaprana: 1 village Julaina which was established by Haryana's village Mewla's Gurjars since 150 years ago Basista/Bosatta: 2 villages in Delhi - Sarai Kale Khan and Khanpur Tanwar/Tomar: 7 villages in Delhi namely Chandan Hola, Asola, Fathpur Beri, Mandi, Dera, Choti Bhati and Bhati Mines or Baas Bidhuri: 5-6 villages in Delhi such as Tughlaqabad, Madanpur Khadar and Jasola. Khari: 5-6 villages in Delhi such as Sultanpur, Rampura, Chandrawal and Wazirpur Rankne: 2 villages in Dellhi Aali and badarpur. Bainsla: Kotla Mubarak Pur one village in Delhi. Naagar: Hasanpur Nagla in East Delhi. Daak: 1 village tamur nagar. Maavi: 1 village Tekhand Koli: 1 village Zamrudpur
Just count the village names in bold, i have been doing research and i found out that {34} is the number of villages in delhi not 70 or around 70.I am a localite of delhi and i CHALLANGE Wikipedia that if there are more than 34 villages then give all the names?.
I can give you some proof:-1970 data
User:Qwyrxian i am sorry buddy , no one can me name of 35 village as it doesnor exist.
My Question and concern is "My refrence shows 34 villages and the names of villages which i have highligted in bold shows 34". If you want to prove me wrong then i am waiting for answer.The name of 35 village?.

- As I mentioned in my reversion, that book is from 1970, so I'm certain that's not accurate information for the current number of villages in Delhi. If you have a more current source, we can update the article. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:56, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
with due respect sir, population of a village can increase in 40 years but not the number. till today the names , location and number remains same.
- Unless India is different than every other country in the world, of course the number of villages can change. Villages/cities/hamlets/machi/whatever term is being used in the local country split, move, disappear, are relocated by the government, appear in response to business opportunities, are eliminated by natural disasters, etc. As far as I know, this happens in both industrialized and developing countries, as well as countries like India that straddle both categories. Heck-think about how many countries have appeared and disappeared in the last 40 years. So we definitely can't rely on 40 year old data for geographic/demographic information. Qwyrxian (talk) 21:48, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
I agree, however till the time no one has exact number we can add this refrence which says "as per 1970 census the number of Gujar villages in delhi is 34" my whole concern is instead of word "Around" if we have some some reliable source why not to use it on wiki."Around 70 or around 100" looks good on blogs or on threads but not on wiki.
- First, please sign your comments on talk pages. The way to do that is to put four tildas at the end of your comment, which will look like ~~~~ when you type it. The wiki software will automaically convert that into your name and time/date of signing. Second, I went ahead and removed the number "70", replacing with just the claim that there are many Gurjar villages in Delhi. This is certainly accurate. I don't believe that there is any value in having a 40 year old statistic on something that has almost certainly changed. I've just spent the last 30 minutes searching a variety of places online for a more current number, including the 2001 India Census data, but I can't find anything.

pls add this also that all about a royal king og gurjar community namly yograj singh gurjar .chief commander of battel with timur.
The Gujjars considerd as the protectors of the country and its faith. The Gujjar leaders in India are known for their bravery, courage and huge sacrifices. The Gujjars sacrifice themselves to perform their duty towards the country. Further, it is on records in history that not even a single Gujjar accepted the subordination and faith of the invaders to save their domain or land or estate.
Some of the names of the greatest Gujjar leaders in India are as follows -
- Vijay Singh Pathik - Indian Revolutionary, Satyagrahi & Hindi Poet
- Choudhary Rahmat Ali
- Ram Chandra Vikal - Ex Deputy Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh
- Rajesh Pilot - Indian Political Leader
Gurjars are always considered as brave people and they became a symbol of bravery and loyalty.
Some of the greatest Indian Gujjar warriors are mentioned below -
- Manu Deo Gurjar - 712 CE fought with the Mohammad Bin Qasim
- Veer Yograj Singh Gurjar - Fought with Timur-e-Lang
- Hari Singh Nalwa - Army chieftains of Ranjit Singh of Punjab
- Partap Rao Gurjar - Army chieftains of Chatrapati Shivaji
- Gurjar Singh - Great Sikh warrior
- Dhan Singh Kotwal - Freedom Fighter of India, First revolt against British Army in Meerut
- Kamal Ram Gurjar - First Indian to Receiver First Grade Victoria Cross form George V
Vallabhbhai Patel was born on 31st October, 1875, in a farmer`s in Nadiad, Gujarat. He was a Lehva patidar or Lehva Patel Gurjar. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel played the key role in uniting 604 different riyasats during the process of independence. He also played a decisive role in the Constituent Assembly and remained the moving spirit behind some of the landmark provisions of Indian principles. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel was considered a man of action.
Vijay Singh Pathik was an Indian Revolutionary, Satyagrahi and also a very well known Hindi Poet. His father also took active part in the Sepoy Mutiny, 1857. During his teenage Vijay Singh joined revolutionary organisation and took active part against the British rule. Ram Chandra Vikal was the first Gujjar leader of India. He was from village Basantpur, it was in Bulandshahr. Rajesh Pilot was one of the most famous and powerful Indian politicians. His real name was Rajeshwar Prasad. He was home minister of India. He was from village Baidpura, of district Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh. He was a man of integrity and confidence.
These were some of the great Indian Gujjar leaders who have contributed tremendously. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.56.172.70 (talk) 06:44, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Proposed addition to infobox gallery
User:Gurjeshwar attempted to add a new picture to the infobox of Ram Chandra Vikal. I reverted, because there is no article on this person, and thus no demonstrated notability or verification that the person is a Gujar. Later (after asked on xyr talk), Gurjeshwar responded on my talk page to give references to verify xe is a Gurjar and seems to be notable. This story from MSN India seems to be the best reference of the bunch, and does seem to confirm that Ram Chandra Vikal is notable and is a Gurjar. However, I still believe that the picture should not be added to the infobox, because there still is no article on Vikal. My opinion is that 1) we have to limit the number of people displayed in the infobox (otherwise it will grow indefinitely), and 2) one of the first measurements should be whether or not the person has a Wikipedia article. However, if other editors disagree, and a consensus can be formed to include Vikal's picture despite the lack of article, I'll self-revert (and I'll need to add the reference for verification purposes as well). Opinions, anyone? Qwyrxian (talk) 06:53, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

- I agree that that does verify Patel was a Gurjar. However, if you look through this article, this article doesn't list individual people. In fact, the list of Gurjars is found at List of Gurjars, and, if you check there, Patel is already listed. So I'm not really sure what the point of this request is.

My research monograph on the Van Gujjars is being published by Walter de Gruyter and I wanted to add to this article. I would be happy however if there was any way a reference to this monograph was made in this article. My mongraph has a substantial chapter on background Gujjar history, Deoband 'school' led islamization, the role of the local NGO, and most importantly the Gujjar responses to Deobandi reforms. Here is the brief abstract:
The religious identity of indegenous Gujjars in the Himilayan region remains largely unexplored. This book argues that their choice to associate with Deobandi Islam occurs in the wider context of conservation debates, local government-led efforts to relocate them from the Rajaji National Park in Uttarakhand, India, and the failure of NGOs to represent their interests. Based on documents and interviews, this detailed work explores both the continuing expansion of Deobandi reform and the responses of the Gujjars. It points toward the role of Islam in integrating marginal groups in South Asia.

I suggest merger of Gurjar with Gujjar. All content in the article needs to be reviewed. Thanks. --= No ||| Illusion = (talk) 03:41, 8 June 2012 (UTC)Mayasutra

= Please post valid stuff only
If gurgoan is not dominated by gujjars then why these area has MLAs and MPs Avatar Singh Bhadana, Krishna Pal Gurjar and In Delhi 4 gujjar MLAs who are gujjars. I request you to brush up your knowledge before you post. I can't say gurgoan is dominated by gujjars but gurgaon,faridabad,ghaziabad, NOIDA, meerut and many areas of delhi are populated by gujjars thats why we have gujjar ministers. Please refer gujjar wikipedia and their population distribution among various states of India . You wouldn't believe but there are 70 villages which are densely populated by only gujjars in Delhi Only.

The numbers in bold may also be incorrect or assumed.My Question and concern is till the time there is no refrence, we should remove numbers in "Bold". Because as far i am correct Wiki doesn't write artices without "credible refrences".

Changes in the introductory section
I would like to suggest a few changes in the introductory section of the page, as follows:
- As per my knowledge, gujjar/gurjar is not an etnic group but a caste/clan. Ethnic group is group of people based on culture/region but gujjar is a caste. Some may argue that then how gujjars are found in muslims,hindu and sikhs.It is exactly for the same reason that jats and rajputs are found in hindus as well as sikhs. Please look into the matter.
- And another thing that I think should be changes is the way we introduce the caste in the same paragraph. Writing ,"Today, the Gurjars are classified under the Other Backward Class (OBC) category in some states in India.[2] However, in Jammu and Kashmir and parts of Himachal Pradesh, they are designated as a Scheduled Tribe under the Indian government's reservation program of positive discrimination." is not an appropriate way to do so because in a way, it affects the social image if the people belonging to the caste but not belonging to any such reserved groups. Added to it, it spoils the harmony because this makes the community to be looked at in a very different perspective that is not intended by any article of wikipedia. If the information is that important and has to be shared, then it can be shared at a different position in the article because sharing it here means it is the only important we know about gurjar clan.
I hope the admin(s) of the article will look into the article and do the needful changes. Thanks and keep up the good work! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.161.84.85 (talk) 20:34, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
- On the first point, we use "ethnic group" to mean "any general grouping of people that have been grouped by one society or another". It doesn't specifically mean anything related to religion or culture. The reason we don't use clan/caste is specifically because of that slash: some sources call them a caste, and others a clan, and without knowing which, we can't be more specific. On the second point, the information is verified in a reliable source. Our purpose is not to create harmony--it's to provide reliable information about subjects in a neutral matter. Qwyrxian (talk) 23:56, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
- Alright, I know that Wikipedia is not here to spread harmony. As I said, I am not against sharing of that particular piece of information but what I mean to say is, that information may be verified/correct but that doesn't make it important enough to be the part of introductory paragraph. And since you've mentioned about neutrality, I take this liberty to introduce to you some important points one must never forget about wikipedia, please read about neutral point of view : WP:NPOV , due and undue weight: WP:DUE , WP:WEIGHT , WP:UNDUE. Or you may perhaps, also like to read about article structure here : WP:STRUCTURE .
- I am new to wikipedia, but I've gone through many(if not all) guideline articles. I see, you are an experienced contributor, but I've a lot of knowledge about Indian history and culture and want to contribute. If you don't agree with me, then we can definitely have a discussion here to reach a consensus. Stating that this article is neutral won't help because this article need to be edited to make it neutral as per wiki standards.

- Well, if the point is to keep it but move it out of the lead, I could see that as being reasonable. Do you think we should make a new subsection in History (something like "Present"), or add it to the beginning of the India section? Qwyrxian (talk) 01:41, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
- Leads are supposed to summarise the article but I think this OBC/ST etc stuff is somewhat toxic if placed there. Not as toxic as varna, for which there is consensus to exclude, but sufficiently so that it can be left in the article body unless there is an extremely good cause for highlighting it (eg: if there is a campaign by the group to have themselves reclassified - there have been at least 1200 of these). - Sitush (talk) 14:27, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

- It can be a good idea to place it in the India section. I see that otherwise also this information has been included under different states. So, implicitly this information is being delivered to the readers. If in case, it is to be done explicitly as well, then we can do so in the end of Indian section and but that would make the article redundant be because as for eg.: Himachal Pradesh
As of 2001, the Gurjars in parts of Himachal Pradesh were classified as a Scheduled Tribe.. What do you suggest? Lets remove it from the intro part and let it be under different states info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.98.241.114 (talk) 17:34, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
- I've gone ahead and moved it from the lead into the India section, but I don't mind if someone wants to further modify it. The Times article is behind a paywall, so I can't see it. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:29, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
Gurjara
I may be wrong about this but isn't Gurjara the more common spelling? It is certainly the more correct, going by Devanagari transliteration. Why isn't this article named Gurjara instead? Morinae (talk) 11:19, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
- There are all sorts of spellings, eg: Gujjar is another. You'd have to provide some evidence for a name change - my gut instinct is that Gurjar is by far the most common in English-language academic usage, beyond which I rarely look. - Sitush (talk) 11:33, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
Talk page behaviour
- Please do not use CAPITAL LETTERS unnecessarily in your messages. It is considered to be shouting.
- When making statements, please do provide reliable sources to support your claim, and note that the ethnographies produced during the British Raj period are not reliable. If you cannot provide a source then there is no point raising a dispute regarding a factual statement.
- Please try to avoid terms such as "idiot" and avoid denigrating other communities. Neither are conducive to collegial development of the article - and that is what Wikipedia is all about.
Thanks. - Sitush (talk) 17:26, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
