Global InformationSatha Chaurasi information
Satha Chaurasi (also known as Laghu Mewar) refers to an area in the west of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, where the majority population belongs to the members of the Rajputs (Thakur) community.[1] It falls within the boundaries of the Ghaziabad, Meerut and Muzaffarnagar Lok Sabha constituencies.[2] Satha translates as group of sixty (60) and chaurasi as group of eighty-four (84). These numbers may have had a significant socio-political context in the medieval period as a definition of scope for territorial and lineal boundaries.[3]
