The Ahars are a Hindu caste in India. The term "Ahar" was historically associated with the Yadav caste, along with the term "Ahir". The group labelled Ahar were generally found in a few west-central districts of India, but in the 1931 census of India appeared in large numbers recorded in the north-central districts, though not in any of the districts between the former and latter.[1] They claim to be descended from Yadu Race.[2]
Ahar, also called Ahir or Yadav is a peasant or agricultural caste of North India.[3][4][5] Lord Krishna himself belonged to the tribe of the Yadavas, or descendants of Yadu.[6]
