Rawat Rajputs are people who reside in Ajmer, Rajsamand, Bhilwara and Pali districts of Rajasthan as well as Kumaon and Garhwal of Uttarakhand. They claim their descent from Chauhan Rajputs belonging to Chauhan dynasty.
Rawat is a title used by Rajputs, in Uttarakhand (Popularly known as Garhwal & Kumaon) & some parts of Rajasthan. They are believed to be descendants of Chauhans. . There are some notable Rawats like Gorla Rawat, Bangari Rawat, Kunwar Rawat, Jirdhari Rawat and so on all of them are from Rajput families. Some of the Rawats belong to the Royal Rajput families & landlords also.
Some historians believe they are the direct descendents of Prithviraj Chauhans brother Hariraj who escaped to dense hilly and forest areas after the fall of the Chauhan empire in Ajmer and the defeat of Prithviraj Chauhan. While others believe they are the descendents of Rao Lakhansi of Nadol branch of Chauhans. Two sons of Rao Lakhansi named Rao Anhal and Rao Anoop defeated the Gurjar king ruling in the Magra region and established their empire which was destabilised by the Mughals. They came to be known as Rawats after their two great warrior ancestors Narhaa Singh Rawat and Vihal Singh Rawat. They were awarded the titles of Rawat for their outstanding bravery with commanders Jaitaa and Kumpa in war against Sher Shah Suri by the ruler of Jodhpur Maldev and Vihalji for attacking the Iltutmish camp by the ruler of Mewar Rawal Jait Singh. Their descendents then came to be known as Rawats. It is believed they escaped from Ajmer to hilly and dense forest areas after defeat of Prithviraj Chauhan. With time some other branches of Rajputs also came to these hilly areas like the Rathore (Pokhariya) Gahlot (Gartund etc), Panwar (Dhodhing, Khiyawat etc) and mingled with the Chauhan Rawat Rajputs. Mainly they serve in the army. Because they developed their own culture there they are known as Rawat Rajputs. Their culture has been affected by the hard conditions they were living in, surrounded by hills and forests.
Some if not all of the Rawat Rajputs are believed to have migrated from the Indian plains during the Middle Ages. They still retain the name of their areas of origin: for instance, the 'Udaipur Patti' in Garhwal is a group of villages inhabited by people believed to have migrated from Udaipur in present-day Rajasthan.(Collected from wikipedia)

This is revelation to me. I didn't know Rawats were Rajputs!
Fascinating pictures both of these. I think the modern western attire is killing all the spice of life. All of us need to start wearing our cultural attires and maintain our own identities.
I like your attention to detail in your writings, esp, your fascination with names and locations, like you did your novel too. Talking about novel, did you bring it to a graceful ending, ever?
So, are there more Rawta in Garhwal or Rajasthan?
this write up is not mine but lifted from variuos sources and language is also not mine.
Novel will start..i am not getting time to think it over.
Rawat is title given to mercenaries/warriors who at time battle landed support to war lord.
The title 'Rawat' means a ruler. The rulers of the erstwhile princely states of Pratapgarh and Deogarh in Rajasthan have the title of Rawat( now called Maharawat).Both 'Rawat' and 'Rawal' were titles given to chief nobles alongwith jagirs. The principal noble of Mewar is the chief of Salumbra and holds the title of Rawat.They are Sisodia Rajputs of the Chundawat clan and one of their ancestors, Rawat Bagh Singh led the Rajputs in their finally rally against the forces of Bahadur Shah of Gujrat during the second saka of Chittor, made famous by the jauhar of Rani Karnawati who had sent a Rakhi to Humayun. In Garhwal too, the title of Rawat was bestowed upon Rajput chieftains in the Royal court alongwith jagirs called 'Raut'. A Rajput holding a jagir bestwed as Raut was called Rawat. That's why Rawats with different gotra can intermarry since Rawat is not a single clan. The legendary female warrior of Garhwal who fought against the Katyuris - Teelu Rauteli was from the clan of Gorla Rawats and not from the clan of Rautelas as is often (wrongly) inferred from her name. Ranu Rawat was another famous warrior of Garhwal.
Sucessful mercenries did become rulers, risk reward you know!
No buddy, they were by no means 'mercenaries'. The term means a soldier of fortune who fights only for money and sells his sword and allegiance to the highest bidder. The Rajputs have never been anything even close to mercenaries. The Rawats were warriors fighting for their own country and were often blood relatives of the kings.The term mercenary is a derogatory one you know and no patriotic soldier would ever want to be associated with it.
Fine!!
there is no matching of rawat rajput of ajmer,beawer ,bheem area are differ with the rawat of garhwal.The rawat rajput of ajmer etc are in backward class whereas rawat of garhwal are in rajput in higher position.Rawat is only title in garhwal like gorla rawat(parmar of chounkote,parsoli,gurad etc),rigoda rawat(rajwar of ringadsuin patti),butola rawat(tanwar rajput) etc.Rawat title was for rulers of petty states for petty chief's.Similarly negi(who used to receive gifts on the behalf of king),bist( vishist person/special man who are recognised by the king),adhikari(the officer in the service of kings),bhandari(the inchare of store of ruler/king) etc are only titles for persons,for example kala bhandari are parmar rajput,chamola bisht are parmar rajput, padiyar bisht are padiyar rajput etc
great Sir mr parmar!
We need such inputs.
keep sharing
If rawats wer of royal house of garhwal nd title ws given for bravery den y rawats r so mch in population ?
@Abhishek Rawat, it is true but is was happen in recent 40-50 years that many people who does not have any title tried to wrote surname "Rawat" against then (As told by our seniors family members). Rawat title was used only by chieftain/petty rules. Like my family, I am from Gorla Rawat (A branch of Parmar Rajput who migrated from GujarDesh/Gujrat in early 8th century) family. My ancesstores was Rawat Bhup Singh who was the Chieftan/Rulter of Chaundkotegarh/Gurad in 1650 AD. Famous woman warrior Tilu Rotteli was his daughter. I am the 13th decedent of Rawat Bhup Singh. Some rawat like "Van Rawat"are in schedule Tribe also.
Dear parmarji, thanks for giving such a nice information that you belong to the
family of Brave Bhupu Rawat. I have attempted a play on Great Tillu Rauteli in Garhwali language. I shall be happy to share with you the script for your valuable suggestions. However, Bhai Vinod Rawat's village Bhatta parsoli in Parsoli has a namesake "Bhatta parsol" in NOIDA Which is also inhibited by the Gujar community. So, may be there a connection, that your family shifted to Garhwal gurad from NOIDA in medieval period ? Hope you will like to throw some light on it.

In garhwal. I am a Bangari Rawat from garhwal.
you from bironkhal? I am a bangari rawat.
It is true that many people has started using the Rawat sirname. But in Garhwal, the main Rawat Rajputs were "thokdars" who were given responsibility of an area of some particular villages by the king. We helped them in war and ruling the kingdom. I am a Bangari Rawat and our family(my great grandfather, Shri Ganeshu Bangari) has fought the war side by side with the great Tilu Rotelli. We were migrated from Rajasthan in 1560AD. @parmar may know of bangari rawats

Bangai rawat are suryavanshi(katyur dynasty ) , they were ruling in whole uttrakhand before Parmar and Chand rulers.Bangari rawat in garhwal basically from Kumoun region and migrated to Garhwal in the services of Parmar rulers of Garhwal.There gotra is Son Kasyap .Bangar ,Rajwar ,Manral,Dangwal,Kandari,Khati etc all are Katyur branches.Jagmohan Singh Rawat ,9057361352
Bhatta parsoli Gorla rawat are our brothers.I am from Parsoli which is adjoining to Bhatta Parsoli (Bharatpur ) .There is no connection of Bhatta Parsoli of garhwal to Bhatta Parsol of Gujjar .Vinod Bhai of Bharatpur/Bhatta Parsoli is also our branch brother.Gorla Rawat/Parmar of Parsoli are the decendent of Bhagtu/Bhagat Singh Gorla rawat who was the brother of Teelu Rotteli.I am writing from my friend I'd.Jagmohan Singh Rawat,9957361352, jsrawat.cpwd@gmail.com
In samvant 813(737 AD) parmar came from Gujrat to Garhwal and settled down in Gurar village , which is now Gurad.From their first settlmense village thset Parmar latter on called Gurla/Gorla . Rawat title received from Kings of Garhwal as other rajput got from.In 1933 caste basis census by British this year is also mentioned by Brithisher in book Rajput of Tehri Garhwal ( census of Agra and Ouadh )

Gotra system found only in Rajput and brahmins .No other castes have rishi gotra.This is the main identity of Rajput or brahmins.In other castes people write their surname or their branch as Gotra . Brahmins also reconise thier jajman Rajput as their Gotra
Rawat of Rajasthan and rawat of garhwal are all same don't get confused just because of reservation system because garwali rawat's ancestors ran away from Rajasthan so they don't have any idea of what these rawat's if Rajasthan had been and now they start comparing each other, garwali rawat's didn't even knew their history few years ago, there were no bards of them and they are start comparing. Just wow
Rawat of Rajasthan have all the history and proofs to prove them they are rajput, it is because of them that now you guys know little about the history of rawat. Instead of comparing each other or thinking you're above them will do no good but helping each other will
I am a Bangari Rawat from Pauri Garhwal.I have never Picked up a sword in my Life. I Stay in Gujarat these Days. How does that Make me a Rajput ?

Bangari Rawat is a branch of Parmar dynasty who settled with King Kanakpal from Dhar Nagari and came to Chandpur Garhwal, due to their valor (they were famous in Talwar Baji, cavalry etc.)he (King)made them commander of Chandpur Garh. And made them the Gadhapati of Uppar belt of Nagpur bastion and entrusted the Jagirdari of Bangarsyu belt. From this Bangarasu strip, these Raut came to be called Bangari Raut.
Later, the Raja of Garhwal sent 6 dozen Bangaris to the Raja of Kumaon for the purpose of improving their relationship. His name began to be associated with the Katyuri kings, the chief of which is Veeram Dev, Dham Dev.
Nowadays, many people are vying to call themselves Rawat. they hides their real caste and uses the name Rawat. I appeal to all my real Rawat to avoid marrying their girl to any small caste and not marry his girls. Those who used to raise our dolia, plowed our fields, they are taking our girls by marriage.
There is appeal especially to girls. Follow your glorious history.
Hey.... I'm bangari rawat from Almora , kumaoun . Can u please tell me the history of bangari rawat.
hi, please read above comments for Bangari's history.
and share your knowledge as well that how much you know about the Bangari's.
K.S Rawat, picking sword doesn't make you a Rajput , a executioner also picked a sword so it doesn't mean he is Rajput , in my view Rajput is the person who always follow his dharm, didn't tolerate injustice , always liable to their friend and family , can do anything for his commitment , always help to poor and weak people from powerful people in front when any injustice happening in front of him, never compromise with his honesty and his rules.
that's the reason people had always loved the rules of Rajputs (kshatriya). Rajput always known for his commitment and valour and great follower of his Dharma.
I am also a Bangari Rawat. My village is Syuni Sendhaar in Bachansyun district of Garhwal, Uttarakhand. My ancestors are said to have been migrated from place near Baijron, Bangarsyun. It is said we have a connection with Syunsi Bangaar. Our jati gun is when we speak we speak with a loud and strong voice which terrifies other people which feel as if we are threatening them. But such voice comes naturally to us. Our Kul Devi is Hariyali Devi that has a temple in Jasoli.
Some say we may have came from Kumaon. We are of Bhardwaj gotra.

Rather it is Bachansyun patti not district. I inadvertently made this mistake of writing district.
भारत में रावत सरनेम बहुत से वर्गों मे मिलता है परंतु ना समझ लोग हर कोई रावत शब्द को उत्तराखंड से जोडने का प्रयास करता है। सभी लोगो से प्रार्थना है कि जबरदस्ती किसी दुसरे समुदाय जाति मे न घुसें।
राजस्थान में उदयपुर/डुंगरपुर/बांसवाड़ा आदिवासी क्षेत्र के आदिवासी रावत लिखते हैं तथा वहीं इस क्षेत्र के बडे राजपूत ठिकानेदार/जागीरदारों/राजघरानों के नाम से पहले रावत टाईटल लगता है।
अजमेर/ब्यावर/पाली/राजसमंद मे रहनेवाले पिछडी जाति के रावत समुदाय भी अपने आपको रावत राजपूत कहता है परंतु शुद्ध राजपूत इनसे शादी ब्याह नहीं करते। ये ही रावत राजपूत समुदाय है जिन्होंने विकिपीडिया आदि सोसियल साईट पर सबसे ज्यादा उत्तराखंड के रावत सरनेम मे घुसने की कोशिश में लगे हैं।
अलवर/जयपुर के पास खंडेलवाल बनिये भी रावत सरनेम लगाते हैं,कुछ माली, कहीं गुजर भी लगा लेते हैं।
मध्यप्रदेश में कुछ अनुसूचित जाति के भी रावत लिख रहे हैं। सहारनपुर के पास पुंडीर राजपूत भी रावत सरनेम लिखते हैं। उत्तर प्रदेश के फतेहपुर,बांदा, कानपुर,आगरा, बाराबंकी आदि मे अनुसूचित जाति के रावत लिखते हैं।
उत्तराखंड में राजपूत रावत लिखते हैं तथा उत्तराखंड में असकोट मे राजी रावत आदिवासी हैं। उत्तर प्रदेश में मेरठ मे जाट भी रावत लिखते हैं
