Awww... look at Mr. Purshuram defending his Rajput retainers... "Brahminism zindabaad!?"
1. There is no mention of "Bajjar Rathore" or "Alam Chauhan" in any credible contemporary source.
2. Janjuas are a Muslim tribe of the "salt range" with a relatively recent "Rajputized" history - most of the stories of their "ancient Kshatriya Rajput heritage" were invented in the 20th century. It's the colonial obsession with Rajputization/Kshatryafication of anything/everything. This allowed them to mobilize groups against stronger post-17th centuries sovereign groups that actually held tangible military power like the Sikhs, Jaats, Marathats.
Lord Lake defeated all the Rajput kingdoms in 3 months. Until he arrived at Bharatpur ruled by "mleccha" (or so-called "shudra") Jatts. They also struggled against the "shudra" Marathas. THe British struggled against the Sikhs AND the Mughals...
BUT NOBODY STRUGGLED AGAINST THE "Kshatriya" RAJPUTS. THEY WERE TOO EASY.
3. Raikot "Rais" were basically self styled "Rajputs" who invented an ancient past. They were a bunch of highwayman of the "Manj" tribe who came to power when their chief was offered the Faujdari of Jalandhar Doab alongside the Qasur Afghans of Jalandhar - to DEFEAT THE SIKHS.
4. The Rajputs of Jaipur one against Sikhs + Bharatpur because of their exclusive alliance with the Mughals - hence they also had additional Turkish/Central-Asian/Mughal troops and Afghans help them out by the masses.
Rajputs were only good at lower and mid-level command of Mughal forces, higher level command was always with the far superior Mughals and Afghans... whom the SIKHS and the JAATS defeated.... Rajput were too busy trying to make deals to promote their self-aggrandisement agenda.
