[edit] Raja Sahasi II A Rajput ruler ??

I doubt the claim that Raja Sahasi II was a last Raput ruler. The term Rajput had not come in use at that time. In Chachanama the word has been used only one time. Thakur Deshraj is one of the prominent Jat Historians. He has mentioned about Rajputs in his book on Jat history page 113-114, w.r.t Imperial Gazetteer of India Vol 2 (page 307-308),

"Then between the 7th and 8th centuries the old racial divisions passed away and a new division came in founded upon status and function.... The rise of Rajputs determined the whole political history of time. They made their first appearanca in 8-9th centuries; most of the greatest clans took possession of their seats between 800 and 850 AD.

Thakur Deshraj has mentioned in "Jat History" book at page 700 that Raja Sahasi II was a Mauryan jat. Rai was his title. Consequent reactions of Jats in Sindh against the rule of Raja Dahir seem to prove this theory. He has mentioned on page 703 about treachery of one 'Kaka' of Channa clan, who mixed up with Mohammad Bin Qasim, which led to victory of Mohammad Bin Qasim. Facts may be further verified. burdak 12:50, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
