I'll cut the bs and get straight to the point

What do you all think about yourself.

I'm a Meena from Alwar but was raised in Delhi

Im just curious about my identity nothing more

All the things I have seen on the internet are just contradictory BS. Some says we are subpart of bhils which is as I learned utter BS. They are called Bhil Meenas and are treated as a separate caste.

And on social platforms there is just hate with no real info.

One day we are Rich, Landowning UC taking rights of real tribes

Other day we are Shudras

On another day we are worse off than dalits 'ajankyas' or something like that

Then we are actually jungli adivasis one day

So what exactly is the truth.

My family says we are just a pastoral community which ruled certain areas during some period of history.

To me the pastoral one makes sense since I have never actually faced discrimination in my villages like other SCs and STs.

But I have seen some posts about Meenas being discriminated against and even assaulted in southern and western Rajasthan.

And also the Matasyavanshi one. Most people ik don't worship bhagwan Matasya.

Edit: I'm asking because of genuine curiosity Why are y'all downvoting me ? I never called myself the top of the Caste system or denied being tribal or anything so what's with the hate comments ?

My cousin is dating a girl from rajasthan (Jodhpur)from last 4 years and are waiting to get married. Both are Rajput but the boy ( cousin ) is from Himachal Pradesh ( City Area but in mountains) . Our family has no objections from this but her family has multiple buisness and she is the single child with political connections. Is it safe for him to go there and meet them . Her cousins brother would not kill him ? . Are rituals are little different from Rajasthan rajputs and we are not that caste aggressive and followers. Please tell if he should run away from her or go to ask her family.

मैं हमेशा से भाजपा का समर्थक रहा हूँ और अपनी विचारधारा के कारण कांग्रेस सरकार की मुफ्त बिजली योजना का लाभ नहीं लिया।

आज दुख इस बात का है कि जिन्होंने उस योजना का लाभ लिया, उन्हें आज भी सब्सिडी मिल रही है, जबकि हम जैसे लोगों को कोई लाभ नहीं मिला। ऐसा लगता है कि अपने सिद्धांतों पर कायम रहने वालों को ही नुकसान उठाना पड़ा।

यह किसी पार्टी का विरोध या समर्थन करने की बात नहीं है, बल्कि समान और न्यायपूर्ण व्यवहार की बात है। सरकार से मेरी अपेक्षा है कि इस विसंगति पर ध्यान दे और ऐसा समाधान निकाले जिससे किसी भी नागरिक को अपने सिद्धांतों के कारण नुकसान न उठाना पड़े।

Hey Rajasthan, I'm a research scholar and I need some help.

Hey Rajasthan, I'm a research scholar, in a hospital and Research Center in Chennai.

For one of my Research paper I need Corn silks of 1kg apx. The silks could be fresh as well those also which vendors or sellers usually peel and casually throw.

We are doing nanoparticle and Antibiotics research for Klebsiella organism.

Travelling to Rajasthan from chennai, or to any other part to take 1kg of corn silk seems quite expensive. I would be really glad if anyone's is up for sending it from there via courier. I would happily pay the courier charges, in fact I can arrange them as well without any issue. Also for corn silk it's anyways waste, but if vendors charge you, do lemme know, I can pay for that as well.

Thank you Rajasthan. 🤗

I went to Jodhpur a week back and I booked hotels through Make My Trip. The price of the hotels were okay, only. The first hotel that I booked was called >!The Lords Inn!<. It was for approximately 3,400 rupees. As soon as I entered, the hotel was stinking as if someone just had sex there. You know, the pungent very bad smell. I sat on my bed and saw that there is a wrapper of tobacco on the floor. So I was, I thought maybe I should see more and as I bed there were very fresh used condoms. I was a bit horrified because I paid for the hotels. Now I did not check the reviews which was my fault. I just saw the rating which was a good 4.2(later as I read the reviews i got to know that its a very shitty place).But I left the hotel with the intention that, oh my god, I'm not staying here. They could be having cameras in here as well. Since this hotel was sort of, you know, a front for easy sex two hours rooms.

So I went to another hotel. It was called >!Dareecha!<. It was a restaurant and a hotel. And when I entered, I thought that it would be a good hotel because it was a cozy little property, which was a heritage property. And then there, as I was checking in, I saw a couple, I saw the name of a couple and I, oh, there are people here. And said, oh no, these people just left. They came here for two hours. I could see that they were male and female couple, both 22 years of age. But the guy who was there lied to me, told me that there were two males, that the people that I was referring to was two males, and they work in the bank and they just came here to have a bath. But so obviously it was a lie and that hotel also turned out to be a front for sex work.

Now, I don't know what the hell is going on. And later on I booked a hotel which was a really good hotel. (the mandore - a leafy resort)I would recommend everyone to go there. But yeah, so what the hell is going on in Jodhpur?
