@agnivats0ct@Kirttivarman These ones fought against the Marathas and came much later into Odisha,mostly after the Mughal invasion under Man Singh.He is talking about Gajapatis(less likely to be pure Kshatriyas),who resisted Muslim invasions, and Somvanshis and Mahameghvahanas(more likely pure Kshatriyas).
@Kirttivarman@TheAryaPrince@scionofkalhans We cannot say that with complete certainty about the Gajapatis.Also, there was no large native Kshatriya/Rajput population in Odisha like in North India. So,most of the resistance and contribution likely came from the local Kshatriyaized population of Odisha,i.e.,the Khandayats.
@NomadicBrahmin@Kirttivarman The only way to tell for sure is to have DNA samples from all castes of Odisha. If they show higher Steppe ancestry compared to the local population, then there might be some truth to their claims.
@GangeticLord@TheAryaPrince@Kirttivarman@scionofkalhans@kalingarchives They aren’t talking about them. These migrants came after the Mughal invasion of Odisha under Man Singh. They are referring to the older ones who resisted the Muslim invasions. If I’m not wrong, the Rajput migrants in Odisha mostly fought against the Maratha invasions.

@TheAryaPrince@Kirttivarman@scionofkalhans I don’t think they were entirely tribal,since their genetic distance from tribal groups is high.They were likely a local population later Kshatriyaized.Most East Indian non-Brahmin upper castes like Karanas,Kayasthas,and Khandayats are functional castes from local populations.
@NomadicBrahmin@Kirttivarman But yes, they were the backbone of the kalinga's army, and Odisha’s ability to resist Islamic invasions was largely due to their military strength and contribution.
@NomadicBrahmin@Kirttivarman More functional Kshatriyas rather than Kshatriyas by lineage. Many Kshatriya dynasties of odisha were essentially local ruling dynasties that later claimed Kshatriya status. Even the Suryavanshi Gajapatis are said to have been of local Khandayat origin.

This is funny because the girl on right wouldn't have qualified Prelims if not for reservation
Anyone who gives UPSC knows how big Prelims is a headache with its dicey nature
So if Prelims is sorted due to any reason the path becomes easy, as you can focus all energy on Mains
Girl on left would have divided her time between Prelims and Mains because of higher cutoff requirement
