The Sipra appear to be a sub-division of the Pawar tribe of Jats, which gives its name to the famous battlefield of Sabraon. They too are found chiefly on the Jhelum and lower Chenab and are most numerous in Jhang, in which District they form a powerful tribe. There they claim to be of Hindu Rajput origin, and still employ Brahmans, or in default a Mirasi, for ceremonial purposes. Their wives aretaken from the Chadhar and Mahun Jats, or sometimes from the Sials: but they only give daughters to the Bharwana clan of the latter tribe or within their own circle
