<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Sadly Indian society is a casteist society, and those who wrote our history, as it is taught today, saw it to their advantage to disparage the Jats, not seeing that it is themselves and the larger Indian society that would suffer in the process.
From Muslim chroniclers, one expects this, as the Jats did not roll over and dies, and gave them no rest.
When Hindu writers R S Sharma, Mahajan, K S Lal etc show an anti Jat bias, for whatever their petty casteist ends, one does experience disappointment.

I agree most of the Indian historians are buffons.
But here on this forum you won't find any mean minded people.
We all believe in putting Bharata Maata & Hinduism first. Not petty communal politics.
So you can start by telling which historians are displaying anti-Jat bias, by providing supporting evidence.
I think discussion is the best way to resolve conflicts. What do you think?
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->It is not that the Jats did not record their history. They did, as best as they could, amidst the continual war they were engaged in.

You can start a thread titled Jat history and tell us more about your community.
I think most of us know very little about Jats.
Further if you can tell us what is the root cause for the conflict between Jats and Rajputs, that will clarify a lot for those of us who don't know anything about this.
Ignorance is the root cause of most problems. If every Hindu community can enlighten others about itself, most of the social problems will disappear.
