Origin of Pawar

Pawar originated fromThe Mahabharta Tribe - Pachar or Pachehra.Other historians consider Paramaras to be the ancestors of Panwar. At the Time of Alexander’s raid into India, he faught against the Puru tribe. The leader of Puru tribe was Porus. There is a reference of “ Porus’ in the Greek accounts. The name of clan of Porus was Puru, and now Puru is found amoung the Jats as panwar, Puru, Pawar, Parmar, Paur, Por, Paurava or Pauria, or Paurya as a gotra name.The kings of Malwa or Ujain who reigned at Dhar and flourished from the ninth to the twelfth centuries were of the Panwar clan.It is stated in mediaval history that the Panwar ruled over a large area consisting of nine castles including the ‘Region of death’, the name given to the great dessert of Thar which extended from Sind to the Aravalli mountains and from the great salt lakes to the skirting of Garah. These castles were Abu, Nundore, Umarkot, Arore, and Lodorva etc. Mr. Crooke states that the expulsion of the Panwars from Ujjain under their leader Mitra Sen is ascribed to the attack of the Muhamaddans under Shahab-ud-din Ghori about AD 1190. After this they spread to Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, where they are known as Pawar (Sivaji was a Puar)and so is the Nimbhalkar tribe.
