In my earlier post I said the Bajad ( Bajjar) and Nagdi (Nagara, Nagar Nagari ) gotra are the same. They were the rulers of Bagad Pradesh and Nagda was the capital. Rana Udai Singh Nagari ( See Babarnama) was the last king of Nagari Gujjars of Udai Pur at Nagda hills.
During the time of they Nagabhatta the Great in 8th. century they went to Afghanistan to beat the Arab invaders and founded Nandarhar and Bajour in swat areas. bajour is still called by the same name but Nagarhar is renamed as jalalabad after the division of the country.
See the proof here: During the time of Mihir Bhoj the Fort Commander was also a Nagara (Nagar) from Varrajjra (Bajad) family. The Vishnu Temple at gwalior fort is made by nagari Gujjars.

Here is the details of Nangarhar and Bajour which are ruled and named so nby Nagara Gujjars of Varrajjra ( Nagdi and Bajjad) Gujjars. These places are still dominated by Gujjars.

Not only Bajaur and Nangarhar is named after the Gujjar Gotras but also the Vajirsthan is named after Gujjar Gujjar Gotra of Bajjad.
See the following inscription:
A fragmentary stone inscription of the reign of Paramabhattaraka Maharajadhiraja Sri- Jaypaladeva has been found on a hill north of Bari Kot in Upper Swat. It records that some person founded Vajjarasthana. Rai Bahadur Daya Ram Sahni indentified the king mentioned above with Shahi Jai Pal and Varrajarithana is present day Vajirsthan, the country round Bari Kot, where the stone inscription has been found.
Ferrista describes Jai Pal as son of Kshiti Pal which si the other name of Gurjar Pratihar Emperor Mahi Pal. This proves the point that the old Gujjar Fuedatories of SWAT valley must have been replaced by the son of Emperor Mahi Pal.

Rare document: Judgment by Shivaji’s commander found

MODI SCRIPT - The judgment, which has a royal seal over it, shows various salient features of Modi script prevalent in the 17th Century
PUNE: City-based historian Dr Anuradha Kulkarni claims to have come across a rare document in the form of a judgment delivered by Prataprao Gujar, the Sarnaubat (commander-in-chief) of 17th century Maratha warrior king Shivaji Maharaj.
It is believed that Prataprao had delivered this ruling some 50 km from here at Shirwal in year 1668 pertaining to a dispute related to ownership rights of villages.
Kulkarni claims it as the first of its kind judgment of Prataprao unearthed till date, which she came across at the city-based Bharat Itihaas Sanshodhak Mandal.
“I stumbled upon this rare document while I was going through the Modi script documents archived by historian late G H Khare. After reading a little part of it, I realised that the 14 ft long and 10 inch wide document in my hand was more than unique,” Kulkarni told Sakaal Times.
She said, “It is a ruling delivered by Prataprao in a dispute over ownership rights of villages in Nirthadi region of Pune zone. There was a row between descendants of Lale dynasty, who owned those villages.”
She said the ruling mentioned that one Saibai Babaji Lale and her son Antaji had a complaint against Padmaji Krishnaji Lale over possession of villages and after listening to both sides, Prataprao ordered both to keep three villages each.
The judgment cites a lengthy list of nobles present on the occasion, including those from Karhad and Phaltan, which were not under reign of Shivaji, Kulkarni said. “It is believed that Prataprao Gujar was earlier known by the name Kadtoji. It was in 1666 when Shivaji Maharaj appointed him as the Sarnaubat and bestowed the name Prataprao,” she said.
“The judgment mentions both names, Rajeshri Kadtoji Gujar Sabhanayak at the starting and later Rajeshri Prataprao Gujar in the end, which substantiates this fact,” she added.

All the Fuedatory rulers of having Gotras of Chandila, Chauhan, Solanki, Guhila, Parmar,Khatana, Nagar, Bajjar, Bhadana, Dahima etc, were Gujjars only.
Here is the inscription of Chandella rulers Yashovaraman whi is written as Sathjvaro Gurjjar-anam in the Khajuraho inscription.
This was probably a branch of Gurjjar Pratiharsof Kannuaj to whom they originally paid allegiance as their viceroys of Kalinjara region.

Hi Ashok,
Would you like see a Gurjjara and Gurrjara Solanki inscriptions of 350AD. Here is the information.
This about Dadda-I who was the ruler of Ankleshwar in present day Gujarat. He was atleast 4 generation elder to the Dadda-IV who ruled around 350 AD.
It proves that Gurjjara word did not appear in history at the time of Huna invasion. It must have come in to prominence because of their oppsition to Hunas. Similar incidences of appeared during the Arab invasions, during arungjeb rule and during East India Companly rule in 1857 when Gujjars came in to prominence because of their opossition these invaders.
Here is available full view of the inscription
