The population of Sorathiya Subcaste is in majority in comparison of other branches of Gujarati Ahirs. Sorthiya Ahir has a total of 484 surnames, which is more then any other branches of Gujarati Ahirs. According to their traditions, they migrated from [[Mathura]] along with God Shri [[Krishna]]. They are now found mainly in Porbandar, Jamnagar, Junagadh, Kutch and other all District of Saurashtra Prant. The Sorathia speak [[Kutchi language|Kutchhi]] and [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]].
