Sengar

The Sengar are a Rajput clan historically found in the Bundelkhand region of India, primarily in parts of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. They are considered to be a branch of the Agnivanshi Rajputs, claiming descent from Agni, the Hindu god of fire. Historically, the Sengars held significant landholdings and influence in areas such as Jagmanpur and adjacent territories. Their power and influence waxed and waned over time, often involved in conflicts with neighboring Rajput clans and other powers in the region. They played a role in the complex political landscape of Bundelkhand, and their history is intertwined with that of the region's other prominent clans and kingdoms. The Sengar identity is maintained through traditions, genealogical records, and cultural practices. While their political power has diminished, they continue to represent a distinct Rajput community within the larger social fabric of India.
