change "traditionally non-elite, peasant-pastoral communities" to "traditionally agricultural community". As most of the castes identified along with Ahirs like Jat, earlier the page Jat had non elite as well but it is now removed or the other castes like Gujjar which are even considered lower in hierarchy than Ahirs and Jats also do not mention something like this. I think this is the Major problem in this page, seniors edtors may have a look. Refrences ^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] ^[5] ^[6] ^[7] Brandon42Paul (talk) 14:50, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Please obtain consensus for this change. Ratnahastin (talk) 05:23, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is significant opposition backed by evidence, and the burden lies on those seeking to include.

It's amusing that some individuals (edit and revert history highlights them) were dismissing historical, mythological, and British records as outdated and unreliable, insisting that the page should only focus on the modern-day Yadav. Ironically, their argument was countered using recent government documentation, a decade-long struggle against persistent mischief and abuse of admin privileges should prove fruitfull now!
