History[edit]
Many Bachas or Bachal Rajputs are said to get the name from queen Bachchal (Hindi: बाछल), who was mother of famous folk-deity, Jaharveer Gogaji. Goga (Hindi: गोगा) was born to queen Bachchal (the daughter of a Rajput ruler, Kanwarpala ruled over Sirsa in present-day Haryana) and king Zewar in Dadrewa, the ancient capital of Chauhan Rulers in the Churu district of Rajasthan.[citation needed]
According to another legend Gogaji was son of a Chauhan Rajput Ruler named Vacha or Juar, whose wife Bachal (Hindi: बाछल) was from Tomar clan.[citation needed] The apparent reference to parents of Gogaji is same except slight difference in names due to different dialects being spoken those part of Rajasthan and Haryana.[citation needed]
