Khanpur: There are two clans among the Gujjars. One is called Achauhan and the largest section of the Gujjars in Khanpur belongs to this clan. They relate to raja Nain Singh of Parikshatgarh. The second is Rawal and only five Gujjar households belong to this clan. Gujjars of the Achauhan clan claim that they are the original settlers in the village. Some of them assert that they are the ones who set up the village. While ancestors of the Rawals migrated from Rewari, Haryana, ancestors of the Achauchan are said to have come from the vicinity of Garhmuktesver.
