Bhati (also spelled Bhatti)[1] is a clan of Rajputs[2] of Chandravanshi origin.[3] It is also a clan of Gurjars[4] and Jats. The Bhattis are native to India and Pakistan.[5]
In the years preceding the Indian rebellion of 1857, some Bhattis lost land due to the decisions made by the British East India Company, which assigned to Jat peasants grazing lands formerly frequented by the Bhatis in the Delhi and Haryana regions. The British were not enamoured of nomadic tribes, whom they thought exacted protection in the areas that they visited, and the policies of land reform were designed in part to limit this mobility.[6]
At least some of the Bhati Rajput of Rajasthan practised female infanticide between 1883-1998.[2] One princess, a daughter of the Hindu Bhati Rajput ruling family in Dipalpur, was married to Salar Rajab, a Muslim ruler, and gave birth to Firuz Shah Tughlaq. This was one of several examples of inter-religious royal marriage alliances during the period of Turkic Muslim rule in India.[7] Rajput Bhati princesses were also married into the royal family of Jodhpur.[8]
The Sidhu Brar Jats of Patiala State claim to be descendants of Bhatti Rajputs of Jaisalmer. According to tradition, their ancesrtor had married a girl from the Jat Basehra caste, against the clan traditions of the Rajputs.[9]
