Bhatti (Punjabi: ਭੱਟੀ) is a clan of Rajputs and Jatts [1][2] found in India, Pakistan and Afghanistan.[3] The Bhattis along with Bhuttos and Bhatias claim to be a branch of the Hindu Bhati Rajputs.[4]

In the years preceding the Indian rebellion of 1857 the British East India Company assigned pioneering Jat peasants proprietary rights over forested lands frequented by the Gujjars, Bhattis, Banjaras, Passis, and other wandering pastoral groups in Delhi and western Haryana regions.[5]
