This Saka-Kushan rubbish does not even apply for my clan, the Gulerias, or any other Rajput clan in Himachal Pradesh. We are a branch of the famous Katoch clan whose antiquity goes back thousands of years to the ancient republic of Trigarta. Our ancestor Raja Susharma Chandra fought in the Mahabharat War (even today the Gulerias and Katoches use the same ancient surname Chand). The Trigartas are mentioned again and again in the ancient Hindu texts and their home is the Kangra valley...to this day the Katoch clan inhabits that valley. See the Katoch lineage at http://www.uq.net.au/~zzhsoszy/ips/k/kangra.html.
I too have a question for Ravi,

From what angle does the 488th Raja of Kangra look like a Saka-Kushan?

The Raja of Jaswan, a branch of the Katoch clan above.
What does a Saka-Kushan look like anyway? <!--emo&
