- Muslim Jat clans of Ambala Division
-
Below is a list of Muslim Jat clans and their population in the Ambala Division of Punjab, drawn up for 1911 Census of India. This region now forms part of the modern state of Haryana in India. These clans referred to themselves as Muley Jats.[1] In 1911, the Ambala Division consisted of four districts, Ambala, Hissar, Rohtak, and Gurgaon.[2] The appearance of a particular tribe as Jat in the list does not in itself confirm that the tribe is Jat or otherwise. Identity may change with time, and some groups in the list may no longer identify themselves as Jats. This list simply gives an historical distribution of Muslim Jat tribes in the historic British colonial province of Punjab, a number of years prior to the partition of Punjab.[3]
