Chapter Five
Raja Sahanspal Khan and his heirs

Mian Muhammad Asghar (Center) Gujrat

During the reign of Raja Sahanspal, the overwhelming majority of the Mangral Rajput tribe resided in Kotli, Tharuchi, Bhedian and Bratla tehsils of Kotli tehsil of Mirpur district, besides Sahansa tehsil and its environs. Kotli was the capital of the first tehsil.

The four sons of Raja Sahanspal [1] Rai Dan Khan, Rai Tatar Khan, Rai Kandahar Khan and Rai Janb Khan along with their children resided in the same positions. Of these, Rai Kandahar Khan died childless and the rest of the brothers had children. Since the Mangral Rajput dynasty of Gujarat is mentioned in this compilation, we will only repeat the names whose links are found with Rai Abdul Hakim.

Rai Sarfaraz Khan of Rai Tatar Khan's four sons and Rai Zahid Khan of his three sons and his eldest son Rai Sadad Khan of his two sons and his three sons Khurdin's son Rai Bakhsh Khan and his only son Rai Mako From Khan and his only son Rai Mohabbat Khan, the lineage of Mangral continued to grow. Rai Mohabbat Khan's eldest son Rai Habib Khan had two sons, of whom the youngest son, Rai Abdul Wahid's only son, Rai Abdul Hakim, emigrated from the state. And in this sense, this is the noble legacy of the Mangral Rajput family who migrated to Gujarat. The majority of the descendants of the rest of the elders have so far resided in the state.

All the information about the heirs of Raja Sahans Pal to Rai Abdul Hakim has been taken from the authentic genealogy which has been prepared dated March 30, 1916 and which has been verified Baqir Ali Khan, Subedar Pensioner Raja Dost Muhammad Khan and Raja Ghulam Ahmad Khan Zildar said. And this was further confirmed by the Tehsildar of Kotli. The names of the people residing in Gujarat were registered as confirmed by Munshi Mian Muhammad Ashraf, who accompanied his real cousin Mian Muhammad Sardar Khan to the state in 1930 to search for the missing links of his ancestors.

The migration and migration of Rai Abdul Hakim and his family has been mentioned in Chapter III. Why did they choose to migrate to Gujarat? This question requires a separate chapter. However, how can one deny the inspirational reality of the difficulties of the journey in desperation and their consequences, the true passion, the real devotion, the determination to live in a new place and the constant struggle for a brighter future? And hard work pays off. The human essence unfolds only in the pursuit of travel and service and in the struggle of life.

People value travel
The house is closed to happy men
There was a gem inside Taba Sang
How much is the price?
