The most reliable census status on them is over sixty years old. In 1931 the Census of India reported 2,038,692 Gurjars inhabiting eight provinces and Indian states; Delhi, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab (undivided) the North West Provinces (now Pakistan) and other area in and along the Himalaya. The vast majorities of Gurjars today is Muslim and are semi-nomadic, herding sheep, goats and buffalo. They migrate from the lowland plains in the winter to the upper reaches of the Himalaya during the summer. There is very little known about these fascinating people. It will be interesting to read as it carries information on Kashmiri Gurjars across LOC. Gurjars' Culture, rituals and religion and their glory. This is an earnest attempt to fulfilling the reader's inquisition about the community of Gurjars. The book also consists of information about Gurjar gotras and some of the prominent Gurjar leaders of past and present. It is hoped that the reader will enjoy these glimpses into a fading culture and the book would be useful for the scholars and students of Sociology, Anthropology, and Political Science.
