Some fight better under the British. Some fight better for themselves. I am sure you can figure out who that is.

Overrated but nothing. As a part of British Raj tradition, they used to randomly entitle some ethnicity as "highly martial" so it can cheer them and pick out full potential through making sure every youth is recruited. Also, your claim about Bhattis, Rana, Rai, Rajputs etc. It doesn't work like that. Those ethnic clan are no longer purely ethnic. And in today's world, it's more about how better a soldier is trained. You win with your brain, not through hiding under a rock and bayoneting your enemy shouting "haaaaa". Bravery depends on your growth and teachings by your parents, mentors, teachers etc or the atmosphere you get all around you.

Remember, when Raj was failing to invade Burma despite using all your Gurkhas and Soldiers with Hindu-Indian origin. Punjabi and Sindhi soldiers were called to do that job, which they did. Later, Sindhis were among the first ones to launch rebellion against the British Empire. In result, Raj termed Sindhis as "cowards and deserters" from the Army for propaganda purposes.

Conclusion: Gurkhas are overrated and casts do not define your bravery now.

The best infantry soldiers are those who are best trained and raised by their parents accordingly. No cast can define that.

Sindhis were never recruited by the british.

And the battle of Maianee lead to the fall of Sindh to the British in the late 18th century.

The British conquered panjab yet recruiters Panjabis.

Baloch and Pakhtun fought the british and were resisting them till the end but still the british recruited them.

We Baloch were called savages by the british, yet the brits tried their best to recruit Baloch, however Baloch never joined the british in significant numbers.


The Martial Races theory was even followed by the british when recruiting their own Scottish countrymen.

We Rajputs look nothing like Nepalis. Fascinating that they took our names. I wonder about their actual racial composition.
They didnt take anybodys name and they dont look like you because they live 3000 miles away in another country.

Do you look like Rajputs of Rajhisthan, india?

Your logic is rather funny.
 
Pakistani Punjabi/Kashmiri/Sindhi Rajputs and Sikh Rajputs look similar, while Rajastan has higher mixture of Other Indians.
No they dont.

Panjabi (including parahari speakers of AK), Sindhis look similiar because they live right next door. The Sindhis however have a different look than Panjabis..Sindhis on average are leaner and have a bit darker complexion and sharper features.

And Kashmiri/pahariye are also fairer than Panjabi rajputs. However lots of Kashmiri rajput castes also live in Panjab specially Jhelum valley.

The Northern Janjuas etc are more closer to them.

As for Rajhisthanis, lol they are much more casteist than Pakistani rajputs. They dont mix with anyone, they dont even marry in their villages.

The Hindu Rajputs of Umerkot, Sindh are not Sindhi but Rajhisthanis who migrated to Thar, Sindh Pakistan.

They did recruit Sindhis, even from my own village. Tho Sindhis were less interested which I accept. The gramd grandfather of Pir Pagara rn was the one who rebelled. Known as the very first modern rebellion against Britons after 1857.

You said the same as Britons played Martial card for better strength of troops.


Post Partition Provincial Development was based on Naukar Shahis. jisne sab se zyada Naukri ki thi wo sabse zyada khushhal tha. Balochistan was worse. Sindh was wrecked up and NWFP along. Guess who was Khushhaal? And it's no secret ke Punjab was totally down to Earth for Britons all the way since invasion.

Exceptiona or perhaps they recruited some tribes ?

Similiar rebellions also took place in Panjab, the Gojra rebellion after 1857 was of a much bigger scale.. it was started by Ahmed Khan Kharral of Kamalia, still didnt stop the british from recruiting Panjabis.

Post independence? Im not interested I know myself.

I was interested about the british recruitment practices and how or what they thought of the locals.

For that Il refer you 2 books, 1 is Sepoy and the Raj by David Omissi.. he makes good use of 18 & 19th century british documents and records (and describes the british observations of troops from different regions) the second is “Races of Indus by Sir Richard Burton.

You want to see your region through the eyes of the british? Go read them.

From the homosexuality to bhang. From the homesick coorgs of South india to the daredevil Tribal Pathan. They made some accurate observations.
 
I have no idea how brave they are but Indians, particularly Sikh's can give testimony to how effective they are under British officers ~ read Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
by now, you should know that most Gorkhas in the IA come from within India. There are many regions in India where Gorkhas make up the majority. Nepali is actually an official language in India, making us the second largest Nepali country after Nepal itself. @Tshering22 knows this very well.

I heard they also struck fear into the hearts of Pathans during Kargil and in Afghanistan.

Yeh, yeh, yeh. So, boss in a ocean of 1,400,000,000 why would do you need to even recruit a Nepali Sino-Tibetans that are a tiny drop in a ocean. And let me know what grades the Sikhs give to Gurkha bravery seeing that they were on recieving end of Gurkha bullets and bayonets in Jallianawallah Bagh.

And the Brits;, also do it. But check their population and then also check the yearly shortage of recruits.
