A member of a peasant caste residing in the Punjab and other areas of northern India and Pakistan, comprising Muslim, Hindu, and Sikh groups.
[Hindi jāṭ, from Middle Indic *jaṭṭa-; probably akin to Sanskrit Jartikaḥ, name of a tribe.]
As Dev Dahiya ji said, JAT race can NOT remain aloof in current timings. Like for Muslims as we usually make a statement that they need total introspection, don’t you think JAT people/Race also needs total introspection as our Tribal Law stands odd in present timings and needs amendment?
Personally, I want to come out of this dilemma and thought to share my views at JL. Since JL has most of the members in their youth, are well educated and have multicultural exposure, so who could be the best people to answer these questions. Perhaps I have targeted the right audiences and they could easily relate to this thought process dilemma as they will also have to face it sooner or later.
And I am sure; many other people might too have these questions in their mind to get them answered, so com-on share your opinions.

As explained well by Burdak ji, Mahabharat is the best source of information and reference so far as Jats are concerned. During that period, it was very common for kshatriyas to marry girls of foreign origin both for making bonds of friendships within kingdoms as well as refining the race. Arjuna also got married to an Iranian girl (named उलोपी). A 'non-Jat' girl could very well adapt to our system. A quotation may be noted:
परोक्ष प्रिया इव हि देवाः प्रत्यक्ष द्विषाः ।
Means - Marrying (प्रिया or wife) in remote regions (परोक्ष) brings more peace and happiness (देवाः) and marrying someone within one's neighbourhood (प्रत्यक्ष) only invites enmities and sufferings (द्विषाः) .
Hence, Jats adopted a system of leaving several clans (gotras) while deciding marriage bonds.
See the examples of Muslims who marry within their own family and clan - and the bad effects of their system which we all know.

Dear Ravinder, I believe every JL member who is interested in this thread must be anticipating this information from you.
