Protection

This article is being vandalised on an almost daily basis by some persons. Can we take some steps to protect it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Truthalwaystriumphs (talkcontribs) 11:48, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Population estimate

The population estimate of 5.00 crore for kushwaha appears grossly exaggerated. It may be close to 1.5 crore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.242.92.26 (talk) 04:18, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling

It's true.Kushwaha comes under OBC Category. As per Hindu varna systems not only Kushwaha but some other casts also falls under Kshtriya Varna. (Like Yadav,Kurmi,etc.) Get confirm with your resources.Historically and Mythological that varna system in Hinduism.

Is this community also known as the Kachwaha? - Sitush (talk) 16:15, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

as per my knowlegde separate.they are listed as a obc caste evidence here just like lodhi who also claim rajput origin but are obc and not part of the rajput community.i can give you further examples of such groups like Rajput Mali etc.Pernoctator (talk) 17:10, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That source does not say that they are different from Kachwaha. In fact, it does not even appear to mention Kachwaha. - Sitush (talk) 17:16, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
it shows that they (the kushwaha) are a separate obc group not the rajput clan Kachwaha.Pernoctator (talk) 17:17, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How does it show that they are not the clan? OBC has regard to social groups, some of which are not necessarily castes. - Sitush (talk) 17:20, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

you mean to say the rajputs or atleast one of their clan is obc.i don't think so alteast not in uttar pradesh,rajasthan,delhi.the central government also does not list rajput as obc if my facts are correct.Pernoctator (talk) 17:26, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Any chance that you could indent your replies? I am not saying that you are wrong about the subject matter here. What I am saying is we need sources, not personal knowledge and synthesis. These OBC lists are always a complete mess. - Sitush (talk) 17:29, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
obc list mess yes maybe.what do you propose then redirect ?.Pernoctator (talk) 17:33, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am not proposing anything yet. I want to work out what the heck is going on. - Sitush (talk) 17:36, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

look here what this says [1] koeri and kacchi caste have merged to become kushwaha.Pernoctator (talk) 17:39, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
