Shrivastavas are descendants of Shree Shribhanu (Srivastava), who was a son of Mata Nandini (Dakshina). Shree Shribhanu's rashi name was Dharamdwaj. Maharaj Chitragupta sent Shree Shribhanu to establish a Kingdom in the Shrivaas (Srinagar) region between Kashmir and Kandhar. He was married to Nāgaraj Vasuki’s daughter Devi Padmini and two divine sons named Shree Devdatta and Shree Ghanshyam were born. Shree Devdatta got the rulership over Kashmir and Shree Ganshyam got the rulership over the banks of Sindhu river. They were called Srivastava ‘Khare’ born from second wife Kheri.
Shree Chitraguptjee is divine incarnation in human form called Kayastha since he is the only creation of Lord Bramha, created in entirety KAYA from the lords body, unlike the other 16 sons who were created only from various parts of the body. Shree Chitraguptjee (& hence the Kayastha's) were accorded a caste status, namely KSHATRITYA Warrior. The primary duty awarded to Shree Chitraguptjee was to create LOG of the lives of all living beings, judge their lives based on good-deeds and misdoing, and decide, upon ones death, whether they will attain NIRVANA Completion of their LIFE CYCLE & redemption from all worldly troubles or, receive punishment for their misdoing in another life form, till they attain NIRVANA.

Khare (खरे) is also a gotra of Jats found in Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and Maharashtra. This gotra of Jats had originated from grand son of Krishan named Khir (खिर).[2] Ethnic group of Jats is called Jat Samaj. Rajputs had James Tod, the Marathas had Grant-Duff, Sikhs had Cunningham as historians but Jats had no historian. Indian history reveals that after the resurrection of Hinduism by Adi Shankracharya, Kumaril Bhatt and Ramanujam, the caste-brahmin became the sole arbiter of new order and hierarchy. They distorted history and social precedence to suit them. Jats refused to bow to brahmanical Hinduism. Kshatriyas who accepted the brahmanical supremacy unconditionally became favourites and were given dignified name of Raj-Putra, the modern day Rajputs of North India, Marathas of Central India and Kalarippayattu of South India. Jats drew the censure of the Brahmin, and hence their historical background and contribution was underrated, distorted and ignored.[3]
