Should these pages be included or not? —TwinBoo (talk) 17:10, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

By the 1990s, OBCs in North India had acquired education, government jobs, land and economic resources and political power that edged them towards "sanskritization". Many of them started claiming Kshatriya status and looked for a social and religious identity closer to that of the upper caste Hindus.

The Rajputs, of course, are the prime Kshatriya caste. Some maintain that they are descendants of the only people who did not deny their true Kshatriya status and managed to escape from Parasurama; others say that they changed their name to Rajput to deceive Parasurama, but alone of the Kshatriyas kept on with their martial occupation. They appear in any case to have the strongest claim to Kshatriya status.

Numerous ruling families all over the subcontinent were thus invested with the Kshatriya status over the centuries. In North India, many of the migrants and tribesmen who became Kshatriyas by this process came to be known as Rajputs, a people entirely unknown before the sixth century CE, but who, by the early medieval times, came to be regarded as the very epitome of the Kshatriya varna. These people were evidently metamorphosed as Kshatriyas by Brahminical rites.
