It seems that some of British scholars were mis informed by the earlier vassals of Mughals about the real Emperors of India to hise their own origin.
Some of the British scholars did their own research to reach the truth and that is reason they have written Gujjars as Sakas and foreigners.
The following is the example of fact and it can be read on the Internet and and one search for the word Gujar within the book to save the time.

The Pratihara : The greatest ruler of the Pratihara dynasty was Mihir Bhoja . He recovered Kanauj (Kanyakubja) by 836, and it remained the capital of the Pratiharas for almost a century. He built the city Bhojpal (Bhopal). Raja Bhoja and other valiant Gujara kings faced and defeated many attacks of the Arabs from west. india.gov.in/knowindia/medieval_history.php |

The Gujjars History is ascribed to others by the Britishers to create Inferiority Complex over the Indians, since Gujjars always dominated invaders and blocked the entry of the Arabs/Persians at Pamers region of Afghanistan itself even after they were united in the name of Muslim Religion, for more than three Hunderd Years.
We are still reading the tempered History that the Britishers wrote to suit their purpose of inculcating the Inferiority Complex among Indians felt by historians at a three day International Conference held in New Delhi on Sunday.

Here is the how the Gujjar History is stolen and awarded to others by Col Todd. and others.
This is clarified by the knoweledgeable scholar Joh Key in his book India: a history
Doubt raised by the scholar for the history fabricated by others at Page 195
Based in Western India at the opposite extremity of Arya-Varta, the Gurjara-Pratiharas have been awarded an Imperial sway greater even than Harsha's and a national resolve worthy of the Congress Party. "They were of the people and did not stand away from their hopes, aspirations and traditions. The y spearhead of the religio-cultural upsurge' the Gurjara-Pratihars were bulwark of defence against the vanguard of Islam, and protectors of Dharmal. Yet despite such confident statement, despite comparatively frequent references by Islamic writers, and despite a succession of well attested rulers, the Gurjara Pratiharas remain as much an enigma as their composite title suggests.
Page 196: How todd did it
Tod spent ten years amongst the still-independent rajputs as a political agent in the early nineteenth century. In the subsequent Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan, one of the most substantial and sonorous works of British Indian scholarship, he would claim to have established' the common origin of the tribe of Rajasthan and those of ancient Europe'. Invoking 'the Sycthic tribes' as the common link, this was simplay a variation, albeit less remote, of the Indo-Aryan hypothesis advanced by philogists like Jones. Tod also delved deeply into the Puranic pedigrees whereby the various rajput houses claimed descent from heroes of the epic and Vedas. And he valiantly tried to trace each clan to its original homeland. But he failed to explain the greatest mystery of all: why the rajputs, so prominent in Indian history throughout the second millennium AD, had figured in it not once during the first millennium. Where, in short, had the rajputs sprung from? The mystery is still unresolved. Even if rajput clans like the Pratiharas were really Gurjaras, they can still only be traced to C500; and there remains the problem of where the Gurjaras and rajputs sprang from.
Page 197 ( The Word Bhadana, a celebrated Gotra of Gujjars invariably found on various coins of Yodheyas)
Yuadheyas offered a stout resistance to Rudradaman of the Junagarh inscription, and whether earlier still they have migrated from somewhere outside India -- all such mysteries remain unexplanied.
What is certain is that Gurjara-Pratihars representd a social and political grouping very different from those of their Pala and rashtrakuta rivals for imperial patrimony of Kannauj. When they first emerged it was as the most successful amongst several related Gurjara royal families; their extensive conquests were often made and subsequently controlled by feudatories who were often relations; and when their empire disintegrated, it did so into powerful local kingdoms ruled by the families who claim a similar kastriya status and a similar-rajput provenance. This prevalence of loose, kin based relatioships suggests that tribe and clan were important to the Gurjara-Pratiharas. Nevertheless, the Gurjara-Pratihars observed the conventions and assumed the traditional epitets of paramouncy. Vatsraja, who from Ujjain appear to have ruled over Malwa and much of rajasthan in the 780s, had been the vfirst to assume the titles of Maharajadhiraja and Parmeshwara.
Kabul was captured by the Gujjars on 870AD but by the Indian Historians the Shahi dynasty is considered as Non Gujjar. Only fools will believe them since they have committed serious errors in cheating the Gujjars of their history
203 In the Panjab the Shahis jostled with the Gurjaras, Kasmiris and Sindhi rivals,sometimes as allies, sometimes as enemies; while in Afghanistan their fuedatories clung to considerable territories to the south and east of Kabul. These latter were the first to go, and in 870 Kabul itself was recaptured.
Page 231: Triumph of the Sultans (c1180-1320). Friends, rajput and Conquerors: The word Rajput (raj-putera) simply means 'son of a raja'. Although it therefore implied Ksatriya status and eventually came to mean just that, someone of Kastriya case, it originally had no particular ethnic or regional connotations. To those ex-fuedatories of the Gurjara-Pratihar kings of Kanauj to whom the term is so freely applied, and to other Indian opponents of Islam to whom it was occasionally extended, it was probably meaningless other than as one of many hackneyed, and usually much more grandiloquent, honorific. Not until the Mughal period did the word come to be used of a particular class or tribe and, given the prejudices of aurangzeb's reign, its connotation soon became decidedly pejorative: 'Rashboot', as they sometimes appeared in english translation, were freebooters and troble-makers, 'a sort of highway men, or Tories, according to a seven-teenth-century ( the contemporary for the Hindus), they were encountered mainly in Gujarat and rajasthan and were usually under arms, soldiering being their hereditary profession.
See how this cheating is made by wrong translation
Page231-232.Colonel James Tod, who as the first British official to visit Rajasthan spent most of the 1820s exploring its political potential, formed a very different idea of the 'rashboots'. Not only was it his boast that 'in a rajpoot I always recognize a friend,' but seemingly in a friend he always recognized a rajput. Their hospitality to one who was offering acknowledgement of their sovereignty plus protection from the then devastating attentions of the Marathas was overwhelming. Tod found rajputs all over Rajasthan; and the whole region thenceforth became, for the British, 'Rajputana'. The word even achieved a retrospective authenticity when, in an 1829 translation of Ferista's history of early Islamic India, John Briggs discarded the pharse 'Indian princes,' as rendered in Dows;s earlier version, and substituted 'Rajpoot princes'. As Briggs freely admitted, he was much indebted for the unreserved communications on all points connected with the history of rajpootana..... to my friend Colonel Tod.
At page 232 the knowledgeble writers describes why Col Todd did it since it was his job to find weak alley.
About Rajputs: The closest attention to their history proves beyond contradiction that they were never capable of uniting, even for their own preservation: a breath, a scurrilous stanza of a bard, has served their closest confederacies. No national head exists amongst them..... and each chief being master of his own house and followers, they are individually too weak to cause us (i,e, the British) any alarm. *3

I hope my earlier post has decidedly proved that Gujjars were a Clan based Empire and most of the fuedatories belonged to various Gujjar clans like Gujjar Chauhans, Gujjar Solankis,Gujjar Parmars, Gujjar Nagaras, Gujjar Varajjaras, Gujjar Guhilas, Gujjar Chandilas etc. till Mughal period.
It was col todd. who purposely did not mentioned this fact and later other paid historians of the Vassals of British Empire did the job to steal the Gujjar history.

DEAR AP SINGH JI WHERE ARE SOLANKI GURJARS DONE FROM EARTH . HAVE ALL CONVERTED TO JATS (PALAM) AND RAJPUTS (ALIGARH) . OR SOLANKI GURJAR IS STILL THERE? PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ TELL. THANKS RANA GUJJAR....... I Could not get you? I am not talking about the Solankis of Delhi and Aligarh. I am have written about the Gujjar Solanki rulers who ruled on present day Gujarat from Patan and the Great Gujjar rulers like Sidhha Raj Solanki, Kumar Pal Solanki and Bhima Dev Solanki of Gujarat Patan. You may visit Chawra.com to find that the Gujjars of Solanki Gotra still live in Gujarat. You may also refer the Imperial Gazetter and "History of Gurajara Pratiharas" by BN Puri where the Knowledgable writer has given references to confirm about the facts. "Siluka" is the origin of Gujjar Solankis and they ruled over Ayodhya for 29 generations on behalf of Gujjar Kushana Emperors before moving to pesent day Gujarat and Maharashtra. |
