पछादे जाटों का इतिहास

ठाकुर देशराज लिखते हैं कि सिकन्दर के आक्रमण से कई सौ वर्ष बाद, ईसाई तथा मुस्लिम संघर्षों से, वे ईरान की ओर से भारत को अवश्य लौटे जो भाटी, पच्छादे और ढे नामों से प्रसिद्ध हैं। उनके साथ देसवाली और मांझे के जाटों ने बहुत समय तक समानता का व्यवहार नहीं किया था। [11]

राकेश सरोहा[12] लिखते हैं कि अन्य जातियों की तरह जाट जाती में भी कई उप जातियाँ है यथा - सिख जाट, देसवाली जाट, बागड़ी जाट, मारवाड़ी जाट, पच्छान्दे जाट, वैष्णव जाट, आदि। पश्चिमी उत्तर प्रदेश, हरियाणा के फरीदाबाद जनपद व उत्तराखंड के कुछ भागों में जाटों का एक ऐसा वर्ग रहता है जिन्हें पच्छान्दे या पंजाबी जाट कहा जाता है। ये जाट करीब 250 वर्ष पहले पश्चिम (पंजाब) से आकर यहाँ बसे थे जिनमें अधिकतर सीख जाट थे।
