Banjaras were yet another well-known group of graziers. They were found in the villages of Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.

Banjara tribe is a significant caste amongst the innumerable tribes who have thronged various places of eastern India. They are the typical nomads who wonder from one place to another thus leading a life in their own terms and condition. Thus, their way of living is quite thrilling and full of adventures. In search of good pasture land for their cattle, they moved over long distances, selling plough cattle and other goods to villagers in exchange for grain and fodder.

Answer:

Banjara, who are also known by numerous other names - such as Laman, Lambadi, and Vanjari - are a historically nomadic tribe, who may have origins in Afghanistan or in the Mewar region of what is now Rajasthan, northern India.

The Banjaras usually refer to themselves as Gor and outsiders as Kor but this usage does not extend outside their own community. A related usage is Gor Mati or Gormati, meaning cattle grazers or Own People. Motiraj Rathod believes that the community became known as banjara from around the fourteenth century CE and but previously had some association with the Laman, who claim a 3000-year history.

Rathod believes that the community became known as banjara from around the fourteenth century CE and but previously had some association with the Laman, who claim a 3000-year history.According to B. G. Halbar, the word Banjara is derived from the Sanskrit word vana chara (wanderers in jungle). However, Irfan Habib believes the origin of banjara to lie in the Sanskrit word variously rendered as vanij, vanik and banik, as does the name of the Bania caste, which historically was India's "pre-eminent" trading community.
