Beda (बेड़ा)^[1] Benra (बेंड़ा) Behda (बेहड़ा)^[2] Bera (बेड़ा) is gotra of Jats found in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan.^[3]

Origin

This gotra started from place name Benra. ^[4]

History

The Jat historian Hukum Singh Panwar (Pauria)^[5] writes that Jakhar is derived from Yaksha. This tribe Jakhar claim Jakha or Jakhu, known as Yaksha or Yakshu in Sanskrit, to be their most ancient eponymous progenitor. ^[6]^[7] Hukum Singh Panwar further writes that Yakshas were one of the tribes who fought the last battle of Dasrajna War (the battle of ten kings) under the leadership of Dasa Raja named Bheda against Bharatas tribes on the banks of Yamuna. The other tribes were Ajas, Sigrus, Alinas, Pakthas, Bhalana, Sivas, and Visanin. ^[8] ^[9] M.L. Bhargava writes that after the defeat on the Yamuna River they migrated to the Oxus (Geek name) valley and gave the name to valley as Jaksha or Jaaksha. He opines that Budakhsis and their city Badakshan are known after the combined name of Bheda, the leader of the Yakshas and that of the latter, Bheda is also a Jat clan. ^[10]^[11]

The mention of Bhera the leader of clans and Sigrus as one of the clans in this war indicates its relation with Sangrur. As we know Benra is still a village in Sangrur district in Punjab.
