Jat caste
The Jat caste is a socio-economic group originating from northern India and Pakistan, traditionally associated with agriculture and farming. They are recognized as a community that primarily practices land cultivation and has historically played a significant role in rural economies. Jats are found mainly in states like Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, and Uttar Pradesh. While they share a common cultural and social identity, their roles and status can vary across regions. Today, many Jats have diversified into various professions, but their agricultural roots remain an important part of their community identity.
