The Ahirs are concentrated in Mahandergarh, the neighbouring district
of Gurgaon and the Jhajjar tehsil of Rohtak. They claim to have descended
from the people to which Lord Krishna himself belonged, the Yadav tribe.
They are by far the best and the most skilled agriculturists. They are
hard working, frugal and orderly. In habits and nature they are similar
to the Jats and they also have a number of gotras like the Jats.
