Jaswal is a Jatt sikh clan found in Punjab near hoshiarpur.They are traditionally agricultural community in Northern india. The Jaswal is also famous Rajputs( chandravanshi) surname in India (himachal pradesh,Rajistan) According to censuses of the British Raj period, most Sikh Jats were converted from Hindu Jats.[5][6] The relationship between the Hindu, Muslim and Sikh communities of the Punjab region, and between communities such as the Jats and the more martial Rajputs, has been ambiguous over many centuries. The various groups often claim similar origins while asserting their distinctiveness.[7] Some Jats started to follow the teachings of Guru Nanak in small numbers and these swelled after the formation of the Khalsa.[8][9] They formed the vanguard of Sikh resistance against the Mughal Empire from the 18th century onwards. W. H. McLeod, basing his work on the martial race theory, says that the Jats began to join Sikhism in large numbers during the period of the sixth guru, Hargobind.
