Rajpurohits are a Brahmin community, who as a rule, did not provide Brahminical services as expected with the caste duties of Brahmins. Their ancestors are Brahmins, mostly notable Rishis of different sub castes such as Gaur, Paliwal Gaur, Khandelwal, Pushkarna, Nagar, Pareek, Dadheech and Bias but majority of them has Gaur lineage. Though they have been described as a Brahmin group which mediates matrimonial alliances of Rajputs, they did not play any role in actual rituals of the wedding for which the services of a regular Brahmin were employed. They take part in battlefield, business, promoting culture through arts, educational services etc. Political activities
The Rajpurohit community had previously been allied primarily with the Bharatiya Janata Party. In 2009, however, the community switched loyalties to the Indian National Congress, due to perceived neglect by the BJP.
