See I am a jaat of Bihar from a dangi clan and I want to say you that the population of gurjar is negligible in areas of bihar, jharkhand, west Bengal & purvanchal but if u see there is a small population of jaat in these areas. Also u have to see that majority of India's population resides in these areas(purvanchal, Bihar, jharkhand, Chattisgarh & bengal) but alas the Congress government has only focussed in northern areas surrounding Punjab & delhi.also not deviating from the topic we have to see that there is no gurjars in Gujarat and in Maharashtra the population of gurjar is very small mainly dode gurjars so we can't say that gurjars exceeds more than 2.5 crore at large i.e. why it is said that gurjars are 1/4th of jaat population also you have to note that we jaat are 1/4th of ahir/yadav population as you know that ahirs are 14% of haryana population, 10% of up & mp & GUJARAT population,14% of bihar population and 7% of jharkhand & Chattisgarh. So the largest population in India castewise in of ahir/yadav & i.e. why mulayam & lalu yadav controls state like up & Bihar where 30% of India's population resides whereas we jaat have leaders like Ajit Singh & leaders from inld who don't even control 10% of India's population. So I request you to please stop this caste war as it creates only division & I want to remind you that see what happened in UP, Bihar & haryana with so called caste leaders like RJD, SP, BSP &INLD.
Yes I have also heard of Jats residing in Bihar and Jharkhand as well but if u ask ur elders they'll tell you that ur ancestors moved to purvanchali areas quite recently (may be around 200-400 yrs ago).
Gurjars are also present in Bihar, jharkhand, Bengal and even in Nepal. In Bihar they are counted under Kurmi communities and their common surname is yadav. The royal houses of Nepal, Manipur etc claimed descent from Ancient Gurjars.
There are lakhs of Gurjars in Maharashtra, as per Govt records the last ruling prince of Nagpur was a Gujar and so were the Bhosle houses of Satara etc.
Gurjars are also found in small numbers in Gurjarat as patidar, desai and lehva patels. But the total population (2.5 Cr) suggested is moe or less correct. There cant be more than 2.5 cr Gurjars in India at present but if you study authentic historical records, all royal houses of India be it pratihars, chalukyas, tomars, parmars, Marathas, and chauhans all claimed descent from Gurjars thus making most of the Rajputs and Marathas and Patels Gurjars originally.
