The '''Shankarjati''' are an [[Caste system in India | Indian caste]] found in [[Maharashtra]]. This group contains a variety of classes, and is believed to have been formed of mixed-caste marriages, though they now divide themselves into distinct castes. A British commentator noted that they attempt to "pass themselves off as [[Marathas]]", and that "Native officers and recruiters should be warned not to enlist them, any deceit should be readily detected."<ref name="google">{{cite book|title=Maráthas and Dekhani Musalmáns|author=Betham, R.M.|year=1908|publisher=Asian Educational Services|isbn=9788120612044|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6mATx3PBupsC}}</ref><br />
