Singh - Why

As far as I understand from my grandfather, Jat started using singh since Rajput claimed and forced also that no one other then them can use Singh in their name. Jats being always being proud and non-defying for this kind of power show, started using Singh to show that they can also use this and no one can stop them doing this.
 
Welcome & Well said

Why does every Jat have the last name Singh? We have a gotra then we have Singh?
Why did we adopt/have the name Singh added to us?

muslim jats are known as mulejat ( and not jat muslim) in UP.

we dont consider mulejat of up to be jat now, becouse they have been found in intercaste-marriage with other muslims, while jats of pak are still jat as par they havent done any intermixing with others.
