Khagi
The Khagi are a Hindu caste found mainly in the Rohilkhand region of Uttar Pradesh in India.〔Tribes and Castes of North Western Provinces and Oudh Volume III by William Crook pages 220 to 223〕
== Origin ==
The word Khagi is said to be derived from the Sanskrit ''khadgika'', which means a sworsdsman. According to the community's tradition, they were originally Chauhans of Ajmer who emigrated under their leaders Kanka and Mahesa, who left their homeland as a result of a famine, and settled in the town of Sahaswan in Badaun District. The Khagi became the local rulers, but fell out with a Sultan of Delhi, who sent a force to suppress them. They suffered defeat, and their estates were confiscated, and they were forced to become cultivators. The community also practiced widow remarriage, a custom not followed by other Rajput clans, and as such evolved into a distinct community. Now, they are entirely distinct from the Chauhan Rajputs.〔 According to the Community Khagis are said to be Khadagvanshis. Khagi is the name opted by Rajput to cover their real identity from Mughals at the time of Maha Rana Pratap and Mughal's Clash.The Mughals use to search for Rajput everywhere and these people lived like farmers with the new name as Khagis to disguise Mughals but they themselves can identify their people by this opted name . Maharan pratap with their soldeirs need to hide themselves from mughals during guerilla fight between Rajputs & Mughals . These people left their homeland Rajasthan during Maharana Prtap and Mughal clash & scattered in North part of India near Rivers .
