In addition, the Bhati are also found in Uttar Pradesh. They are divided into about forty gotras or clans, and share same lineage with the Manj Rajputs. The state of Jaisalmer was positioned right on the route from Afghanistan to Delhi. Taking advantage of this strategic position, the Bhatis levied taxes on the passing caravans, Bhati Rajputs were proficient horse riders,marksman,baharvatiya and warriors. Their reign spread to the Punjab,Sindh and beyond, to Afghanistan. The City of Ghazni was named after a brave Bhatti warrior Raja Gaj.. In Lahore, a monument exists to this day, which is called the Bhati Gate, named so probably because it opens in the direction of the “Sandal Bar”, an area ruled by Rai Sandal Khan Bhatti Rajput. The majority of the inhabitants of Jaisalmer are Bhati, who take their name from an ancestor named Bhati, renowned as a warrior when the tribe were located in the Punjab area. Shortly after this the clan was driven southwards, and found a refuge in the Indian desert, which was henceforth its home. Prince Deorajsinhji, a famous prince of the Bhati family, is esteemed the real founder of the Jaisalmer dynasty, and with him the title of Rawal commenced. In 1156 A.D. Rawal Jaisalsinhji, the sixth in succession from Deorajsinhji, founded the fort and city of Jaisalmer, and made it his capital as he moved from his former capital at Lodhruva (which is situated about 15 km to the southeast of Jaisalmer) - $EE MoRe @t::::::::::>>>>: rajputanas/tag/history-of-bhati- rajputs/#sthash.EbyIJshV.dpuf (((((((((((Rajputanas RAJPUTANAS.COM जय माताजी की सा खम्मा घणी सा बन्ना, बाईसा दादोभाईसा,काकोसा,बाबोसा हुकम नै। , we provide all information about Rajpoot)))))))))))))
