Ranjodh Singh (died 1872) was a powerful member of the Sikh aristocracy and governor of Hazara.[1] The Majithia family are Jat of the Shergill gotra (clan),[2] and were particularly influential in the area near their headquarters in Majithia (hence the name).
...the small village of Majithia (near Amritsar)—which the family of Sir Sundar Singh, of Shergill clan among the Jat Sikhs—had adopted as their surname, could also be proud of its illustrious Sardars.
