Kajala
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kajala is a gotra of Jats found in Rajasthan and Haryana. Kajala gotra is derived from the Saran clan. The Saran gotra is a branch of Bhati gotra and the Saran Jats are associated with the royal dynasty of Jaisalmer. Their capital was in Bikaner State, which was later occupied by the Rathors. The Sarans live in this area even today.
In the history of Saran gotra there have been two famous men named Kajal Singh and his son Randhir Singh. Kajal Singh is the forefather of the Kajala gotra of the Jats who mostly live in Bikaner and Haryana.
