Gaur Brahmins

Tyagi Brahmins originally called Taga Gaur, is a class of Gaur Brahmins.[1][2][3][4][5][6]The landholding community is confined to Western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi and Rajasthan. They are often considered the highest of the agricultural castes.[7] As of a 1990 report by the Backward Classes Commission, Government of Haryana, they were mostly engaged in farming.[8][9]

The name Tyagi is prevalent in both Hindu and Muslim communities.[10] Community members who converted to Islam are known as Muslim Tyagis,[11] Musalman Taga, and Moolay Taga.[12]
