Bhati

Bhati is a clan of Rajputs,[1] Gurjars,[2] and Jats[3] found in India and Pakistan.[4] Bhatis or Bhattis Rajputs, probably of Turkish origin. Both Bhatis and Jats claim to be Yadavas. But Bhatis are probably Turks and seem to have no claim to the name Yadava.[5] Jaisalmer State was founded by the Bhati Rajputs and ruled it till Indian independence in 1947.
