Darbar (Koli title)
(Redirected from Darbar)
The Darbar or Darbar Sahib is an adopted title by the Koli caste in the Indian state of Gujarat for uplifting their social status and position in the Indian society.[1] During the reign of Maratha Empire and British Indian Empire, some Kolis were jagirs and known as Pallavi Sahib.[2] Some Kolis who were enjoying some power started calling themselves as Koli Darbar and often used Sang, and Sinh as their middle name.[3] According to Harald Tambs-Lyche, these were not merely peasants and pastorals like the other majority population of the Koli caste group.[4]
