जाट इतिहास:ठाकुर देशराज

ठाकुर देशराज लिखते हैं कि यूनानी इतिहास लेखकों ने इन्हें संवस्तई लिखा है। अपने साथी गादड़ों (जिन्हें यूनानियों ने गेड्रोजिआई लिखा है) के साथ सिन्ध, पंजाब के बीच आबाद थे और अब खंडेलावाटी और झूझांवाटी में जीवन यापन करते हैं। 22 सौ वर्ष के लम्बे समय ने उन्हें इतना भुला दिया है कि इसके सिवा उन्हें कुछ भी पता नहीं कि हम सिन्धु की ओर से आये। प्रजातंत्र के सम्बन्ध में उन्हें कुछ ज्ञान नहीं, किन्तु सामाजिक रिवाज अभी उनके गणतंत्री हैं।^[6]
