I would suggest the editors to avoid having a very restricted information on any subject, and massive edits of existing materials should normally be avoided. I also know Khajas are prepared in Kakinada area of Andhra Pradesh, but there it reached from Bihar when the Nandas disintegrated and fled to Andhra Pradesh. We are editing en encyclopedia and not writing an essay in a primary school. Happy editing. --Bhadani 06:42, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Khaja is also a title that is often used as a proper name in the Indian Sub-Conintent. The Name/Title Khaja comes from the Arabic "Kawaja" which in turn means foriegner or outsider. The Muslims who conqured India were often called Kawaja which became a family name/title. It is also used as the title for a village chief or a warlord/commanfer of a batalion of forces.
