History

Dr Girish Chandra Dwivedi has mentioned in his book The Jats - Their Role in the Mughal Empire about historical records maintained by Khaps. A Sarva Khap Panchayat was held here in samvat 1560. This Village has a great history. Being too close to delhi they were attacked by huge armies of mughals many times still they fought with the and are still not converted. Since Desh-khap was the biggest jat clan in western UP therefore they were clearly in the eyes of Mughals all the time. They didn't had only themselves to protect but also minor jat gotras. After the defeat of Dhakas from the muslim rulers og afghan they came to Baghpat it was then the ruler of Desh Khap who let the hide in their territory and Dhakas till today reside in Baghpat in the Dhikauli village. If there were no tomars then there wold be no dhakas now. History tells us that many jat gotras including sherawat and Panwar, Tanwar, toor, shira, bhind etc. have originated from Tomars. Desendents of Poras went to Baghpat there they got married to the daughter of the king Of Desh Khap which lead to the originance of Panwars. Tomars helped Panwar to settle up in Gaziabad. In modern day we get to see 3-4 villages of panwars in Gaziabad. Well they also helped to settle up other little jats like vishela, darayan, dagar etc. in hapur and Gaziabad. We would have lost about 50-60 gotras if tomars were't there or if tomars went selfish or mean but the helped people to fight against the mughal as the saw them as a common enemy. When the britishers came to Delhi they saw that Tomars are havin a great power so to decrease their power they started to send mmuslims in the jat villages which lead to a lot of fights and riots at last Brithishers successfully fooled them by giving the excuse that muslims will live here as you servants for whole life. This is one of the major blunders in the history of India.
