Introduction

The name Rajput is derived from the Sanskrit word rajputra, meaning “son of a ruler.” Rajputs were a class of South Asian warriors and nobles for centuries. At certain times, they were the warriors who conquered kingdoms and defended the land; when possible, they enjoyed the life of nobles. When the British Empire began controlling parts of the Subcontinent starting in the late 1700s, they recruited Rajputs into their military. In the early 1970s, Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi abolished the titles and property rights enjoyed by Rajputs.

Ministry Obstacles

Solanki Rajputs have a strong sense of pride in their historical exploits. Even today they enjoy high status which reinforces that pride. Rajputs will need to overcome this spiritual obstacle and accept the Kingdom of God like small children if they are going to enter it.

Outreach Ideas
