Dhull

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dhull is a gotra of Jats, found in the state of Haryana, Delhi, UP, and Rajasthan in India. It is said that Raja Dahaladhisha, from the lineage of Karna (another brother of Pandavas, who joined Kaurvas and was killed in Mahabharta Battle) later formed Dhilli around Indraprastha and promoted several small villages to form a big city. His descendants still exist with surnames Dhillon, Dhull, Dhill, Dhilwal and Dhaliwal etc. and are popular castes in Jatt clan of Punjab region of India and Pakistan. They are also called Raja Jatts, because of numerous ancestor kings and warriors.
