Ghasiara
The Ghasiara are a Hindu caste found in the state of Haryana in India. They are also known as Ghasi, Ghai and Lodha .〔People of India Hayana Volume XXIII edited by M.L Sharma and A.K Bhatia pages 185 to 188 Manohar〕 == Origin ==
The Ghasiara claim to be a branch of the Lodha caste of Awadh, who emigrated to Rawalpindi and Multan in the 19th Century. They were employed in the service of the British colonial administration as domestic gardeners in a number of cantonments. These Lodha acquired the name Ghasiara on the account of the fact that they were employed as grass cutters. The word ''ghahas'' in Hindi means grass, and ''ghasiara'' is literally means a grass cutter. When the partition of India occurred in 1947, the community left Multan and Rawalpindi, which were now in Pakistan, and settled in Haryana. They were settled in the districts of Karnal and Ambala by the Government of India. Most now speak Hindi, while most also understand Punjabi.〔People of India Hayana Volume XXIII edited by M.L Sharma and A.K Bhatia pages 185 to 188 Manohar〕
