What are the different theories regarding the origin of Rajputs?..

Answer / Tripti Verma

Theories about the origin of Rajputs are varied. Some believe they emerged as a military caste from the mixing of local tribes and invading forces, such as the Hunas or Scythians. Others suggest they were originally Shaivite Brahmin converts who took up warrior roles to defend their faith during invasions. Still, another theory posits that Rajputs are descendants of the Gupta dynasty's royal army.
