But the Royal family of Samthar calls themselves Gurjars. khatana clan

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samthar 2607:FEA8:C80:4560:D944:14E7:CDA2:B51 (talk) 14:28, 25 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

I would like to request a review of the section discussing the ruling dynasty of Samthar State, as the current wording appears inconsistent with several historical and official published sources.

The article presently states that the ruling family belonged to the Bar Gujar dynasty of Rajputs. However, multiple historical references appear to identify the Samthar ruling house as Gurjar.

The following sources may be relevant:

• Alexander Cunningham, Archaeological Survey of India Reports, Vol. 1–11 (1862–1865; 1871–1878), p. 71.

• Sir Roper Lethbridge, The Golden Book of India (1893), p. 745.

• Memoranda on Native States in India (Superintendent Government Printing, Calcutta, 1911), p. 55.

• The Hind Rajasthan: Annals of the Native States of India (1896), p. 750.

• The Sphere, 28 May 1938 issue, identifying H.H. Maharaja Sir Bir Singh Judev Khatana Bahadur of Samthar.

• Robert Henry Wallace, Service and Adventure with the Khakee Ressalah; or, Meerut Volunteer Horse, during the Mutinies of 1857–58.

• John Murray (London), The Historical Record of the Imperial Visit to India, 1911.

• Sahifa-e-Zarrin (1902).

These sources appear to describe or identify the Samthar ruling family as Gurjar, while some records also use the designation “Khatana” in reference to members of the ruling house.

Suggested neutral wording:

"Several historical and official publications describe the ruling family of Samthar State as Gurjar, including works by Alexander Cunningham and colonial-era administrative records."

I request that the current wording be reviewed in light of these published sources and updated in accordance with Wikipedia's policies on verifiability, neutrality, and reliable sourcing.

Thank you.
