As such any caste of Rajput people or hereditary chieftain of erstwhile princely states may be referred to as Darbar caste in general use of the word,[5] although there is no separate notified caste as Darbar. It was a title of honor more in use during princely India, which was used to refer to Rajput chieftains and is prevalent in use even today mainly in rural Gujarat.
