There are some difficulties with some of statements you make.
e.g your cliam: 'The 'Mori' of Chittor are 'Rajputs' in the 7th century CE.'Â
Do you know the earlier name of Chittor ?
The term 'Rajput' is unknown until the 11th century or so.
Perhaps you could rexamine your conclusions.

Ravi,
Rajputs serving the mughals is described under the Maharana Pratap subsection.
Are you saying the Mori of Chittor were not rajputs? Please refer to Tod if you have any
doubt. Mori is a shakha of Parmar rajputs.
Term rajput war first used by Harshvardhana, who was crowned as "Rajputra Shiladitya".
BanaBhatta's Harscharita which was written in 7th century A.D records this. This was before
there was a single Muslim on the planet. (Read R.C. Majumdar history text. Section on
Harshavardhana). I have heard some Jats say harsha was a Jat. So my take is I would
rather trust BanaBhatta then modern Jats with their claims.
What do you mean by re-examine the conclusions?
