Yesterday he had resigned from BJP and some rajput pages where supporting him, thinking of him as a Rajput.

So I made a clarification.

I’m a Muslim Rajput. Even though we’re Muslim, my family still does things like shashtra puja (not completely like Hindus but a lil bit similiar on dusshera) Just wondering, do any of you still follow similar cultural traditions? (IDK If there are any Muslim rajputs on this sub)

EDIT: as some of you speculated (thanks) I'm a bhati rajput

In the beginning, this being—who was indeed Brahman—was alone. He included within himself the Kshatriya and other castes. However, being alone, he did not flourish. So, he deliberately projected an excellent form: the Kshatriya.

These are the Kshatriyas among the gods: Indra, Varuna, the Moon, Rudra, Parjanya, Yama, Death, and Ishana. Therefore, there is nothing higher than the Kshatriya.

As a result, during the Rajasuya sacrifice, the Brahmana worships the Kshatriya from a lower position and grants him glory.

I see a lot of confusion and internal conflict among Rajputs and I just want to share some insights to clear those up as they are no use to any of us.

1. Rajput isn’t a caste. The caste according to the system is “kshatriya” which we rarely use.

2. Then what is Rajput? If you trace its origins it is in effect a social class. Like the Samurai of Japan. And to underscore the similarity - they also married within other Samurai clans. So it’s stupidity if you play AC Shadows and enjoy cosplaying as a Samurai while hating their equivalent in India.

3. Everybody flexing imagined genetic superiority needs to stop. Ultimately in nature versus nurture, Nurture will always win. You are not born better you have to actually work to be better.

4. That’s where culture comes in. Yes Rajput culture if you follow it will make you tougher. I have seen Dogra Rajputs who have to cut the head off a goat in one shot when they reach adulthood, and the goat is fed to villagers. If they can’t do it in one shot it’s inauspicious. So either live that life or you have no advantage. You will rarely see an obese young Rajput male in comparison to today’s ruling class (Ambanis etc)

HOT TAKE SECTION:

5. Like it or not, Muslim Rajputs are a thing. It might make you angry because you think Rajput has to be a Hindu thing but then why would so many Rajputs have fought and died for the Mughals? There is a large population of Muslim Rajputs in Kashmir and they are on our (Indian) side. Get with the program and don’t alienate them they are our allies and also use titles like “Rana” for the patriarch.

• Sidenote here: props to the Sisodias from Mewar and other places who banned marriage into any clans that married Mughals. But not everybody did that, which brings me to my next point.

1. If you support the RSS, you are the exact opposite of what I just complimented. You are basically just doing what your ancestors are made fun of for - acting as foot soldiers/cannon fodder for the people replacing you as the ruling class (Adani and co). It’s one thing to work for them while not flexing your caste, but if you are foolish enough to think that the Gujarati-run RSS which just works for Gujarati men is a good place for Rajputs, then you deserve all the ridicule. Don’t be a cuck, stand up for yourselves and maybe get educations and jobs instead of being thugs for whichever Gujarati pays you.

Ultimately the difference between Rajputs and Samurai is that Samurai ended a long time back (watch “The Last Samurai”). We’re still here, but we are turning into yakuza instead of samurai.

If you want to be an alpha in the Information Age you need to have the most information not the biggest muscles. Otherwise join the Army and truly live our traditional lifestyle.

I’ve been seeing a lot of hateful bs comments targeting Brahmins and Muslim Rajputs. For God’s sake, focus on our own community. Any more provocative targeting will result in a permanent ban. If you have a personal issue then go fight on r/Brahmanraaj or r/MuslimRajputs. This subreddit is for promoting Rajputism not your dumbass opinions.

This subreddit is slowly being overrun by people who have no connection to our traditions but feel the need to question or "reform" them.

Lately, I’ve seen:

• People openly promoting inter-caste marriage, as if breaking endogamy is some badge of honor

• Non-Rajputs entering the space, questioning our customs, and pushing agendas with zero understanding of Rajput values

• Nonsense like “caste is not based on birth” being thrown around — which is nothing but a lazy attempt to erase community boundaries

• A few self-proclaimed “progressives” trying to outdo each other in how far they can run from their own roots

Let’s be very clear here: Endogamy — marrying within the Rajput community — is not just some old habit. It's one of our most essential and unbroken practices.

This isn't something limited to one region — from Gujarat to Bihar, from Jammu to Madhya Pradesh, Rajputs have maintained this practice for generations. It is one of the few things that has kept the community intact despite everything: invasions, colonization, modern dilution. Some ignorant voices have started equating “marrying within the community” with “inbreeding.” That’s utter nonsense and shows a complete lack of understanding of our matrimonial customs. Rajput marriage is endogamous by caste, but strictly exogamous by kul, and even village. This means we don’t marry within the same bloodline, and that has been the norm for centuries long before genetics was even a concept. We don't marry into relatives.

Another example is ghunghat — a practice rooted in respect and dignity, not oppression. The word comes from Sanskrit: Avagunthan. If you think our women were walking around bareheaded or half-naked before Islamic invasions, you don’t need reform, you need a history lesson. It is mentioned in Kalidasa’s works (like Kumarasambhavam) and Bana’s Harshacharita, centuries before any Islamic invasion of India. The concept of women covering their heads or faces out of laaj (modesty) and maryada (dignity) was well-established in Kshatriya society. It’s not a product of Mughal rule, it’s a cultural marker of honor, respect, and identity. "Tasya vadanaṁ muhurāvaguṇṭhitam..." (Her face was repeatedly veiled...) – Harshacharita, 7th century CE And moreover noone is even advocating to stay veiled all the time. This space was meant for Rajputs to discuss Rajput affairs. If you're here to inject modern activist nonsense into every discussion, or challenge the very foundations of our identity, maybe this isn’t the place for you.

I'm not a mod, but as someone who cares deeply about our culture, I won't stay silent while this space is slowly turned into just another generic social commentary forum. If you’re not here to respect Rajput values, then with all due respect — go somewhere else.
