A Rajput (from Sanskrit raja-putra, “son of a king”) is a member of one of the patrilineal clans of western, central, northern India and some parts of Pakistan. They claim to be descendants of ruling Hindu warrior classes of North India. Rajputs rose to prominence during the 6th to 12th centuries.
AND
rajputana means meaning "Land of theRajputs",[1] was a region in India that included mainly the present-day Indian state of Rajasthan, as well as parts ofMadhya Pradesh and Gujarat,[1] and some adjoining areas of Sindh in modern-day southern Pakistan.[2] The main settlements were to the west of the Aravalli Hills, and was known asGurjaratra, the earlier form of Gujarat, before it came to be known asRajputana, early in the Medieval Period.[3] The name was later adopted byBritish government as the Rajputana Agency for its dependencies in the region of the present-day Indian state of Rājasthān.[4] The Rajputana Agency included 18 princely states, two chiefships and the British district ofAjmer-Merwara. This British official term remained until its replacement by "Rajasthan" in the constitution of 1949.
