The Tomars/ Tanwars Rajput

The Tomars/ Tanwars established a state in present day [Delhi]], Haryana, and Eastern Punjab, rebuilding and founding in 736 AD later on Tomar Rajput establish their rule in Central India Under Man Singh tomar. the city of Dhiliki, ancient Inderprastha and modern day Delhi. Tomars/ Tanwars, being of Chandravanshi (Bharatvanshi) lineage, descended from Mahabharat's great hero, Arjun, through his son, Abhimanyu, and grandson, Prikshit.

According to 'Jagas' of Tomars/ Tanwars, King Anangpal-II handed over the kingdom to Prithviraj when he went on a religious pilgrimage. However, Prithviraj refused to hand over the kingdom when King Anangpal-II returned from pilgrimage. Younger Branches of Tomar Kingdom were established after Gazni's invasion between 998AD and 1050 AD at Dhameri now called Nurpur and Patan in Rajasthan. Raja Jaypal Tomar was ruler of Dilli at the time of Gazni Invasion.Later Tomar Rajputs Establish their Rule in Madhya Pardesh

The Tomaras (Hindi - तँ�वर , तँ�मर) (also called Tanwar and Toor) are believed to be an ancient clan of the Chandravanshi lineage

Dilli

The modern city of Delhi is believed to be on the site of Indraprastha. Delhi was established in 736CE by the Tomar/Tuar king Anangpal Tomar-I who re-established the Pandava ancestral capital.

“The Kingdom of Delhi was founded by Anangpal Tomar, whose dynasty, by virtue of descent from the Pandavas, claimed to be Lords Paramount of India ”

—From A Pageant of India by Adolf Simon Waley

Anangpal Tomar

The Tomar Rajput dynasty of Delhi lasted until Anangpal Tomar-III, who to quote Lt. Col. Tod, in his Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan was "justly entitled to be termed the paramount sovereign of Hindustan". Anangpal Tomar III appointed his grandson (daughter's son, and son of King of Ajmer), Prithviraj Chauhan, as the heir apparent. Some historians believe that Prithvaraj was merely a caretaker king as long as his grandfather was alive. Prithviraj was never crowned in Delhi, hence adding weight to the view that the Chauhan ruler usurped the throne from his maternal grandfather. Anangpal Tomar III had 23 brothers and they each had territory of their own.

According to records kept by Jagas of Tomar/ Tanwar Rajputs, King Anangpal Tomar made Prithviraj Chauhan only as caretaker when he went on a religious pilgrimage, as his own sons were very small at that time. When King Anangpal Tomar returned back, Prithviraj refused to

hand over the kingdom to his maternal grandfather. (Jagas are hereditary tribal record keepers of Rajputs.)

Tomar Migration after Fall of Rajput confederacy

Following their loss of control at Delhi after the defeat at Tarain of the Indian Confederacy against Shahbuddin Ghori, the three scion's of Delhi Tomar ruler moved from Delhi and later established themselves at

1. Achalgarh and later at Patan-Tanwarawati - Rao Salivahaanji Tomar2. Tuargarh , Narwar - Modern day Morena District - Rao Tonpalji Tomar.

1. Later - Rao Virsingh Deo and his descendant Man Singh Tomar built a strong fortress citadel which still stands there.The Mughal emperor Akbar captured Gwalior in 1559.

3. Runija near Jaisalmer, now famous for Tomar Saint Baba Ramdevji - Raja Ajmalji Tomar

Some Tomar Rajputs converted to Islam during the Muslim-Mughal rule. Some, especially in the West U.P. migrated to other parts of the country in order to save their religion, and became traders adopting the Vaishya caste.

Translation: There are countless villages in Haryana country. The villagers there work hard. They don't accept domination of others, and are experts in making the blood of their enemies flow. Indra himself praises this country. The capital of this country is Dhilli.

Today Gurjars have around 20 villages of Tomar or Tanwar Gujjars in and around Delhi which makes the perception strong that this was originally a Gurjar clan. These Gurjar Tanwars proved to be the toughest repellents to the Britishers in 1857 during the first war of independence. They captured the Matcalfe house for 12 days cutting all supplies to British Armies and declaring independence for Delhi (though for a small period of time only).

Rathore Rajputs belong from SuryavansThe Rathores gradually spread across Marwar, forming a brotherhood of landowners and village chieftains, loosely bound to each other by ties of clan and caste. An epoch in the history both of Marwar and of the Rathores was marked by Rao Jodha, a warrior who founded a kingdom that grew to encompass all of Marwar. He also founded the city of Jodhpur in 1459, and moved his capital thither from Mandore. One of his sons, Rao Bika, with the help of his uncle Rawat Kandhal, established the town of Bikaner in 1488, in the Jangladesh region lying to the north of Marwar; that town was to become the seat of a second major Rathore kingdom. Some of these migrations from Marwar into Gujarat caused changes in language and the spelling of Rathore to Rathod, which is seen in clans present in Gujarat. Rathods of Gujarat trace their history to the city Jodhpur.

Rathore Rajput rule many Kingdoms:

Marwar (1226-1949),Bikaner (1488-1949),Kishangarh (1611-1949),Idar (1728–1949),Ratlam (1651–1949),Sitamau (1701–1949),Sailana (1730–1949),Alirajpur(1701–1949),Manda,Poonch(1596–1798)

Independent India

On India's independence in 1947, there are 600 Princely States out of which Rajputs were ruling over more than 400 princely state so they were given three choices, join one of the two states Indian or Pakistan, or remain independent. Rajput rulers acceded to newly independent India; Rajputana was renamed Rajasthan and became an Indian state in 1950. The Maharajas were given special recognitions and an annual amount termed privy-purse was endowed them.

Many of the Rajput Maharajas entered politics and served India as elected representatives. In 1971, Indira Gandhi "de-recognized" the Maharajas and abolished the privy-purses. As a result, the Maharajas had to transform some of their palaces into hotels and tourist destinations. Today, the Maharajas still fulfill some of the ceremonial duties as recognized elders and private citizens in India.
