Can you find out who has won most Nishan-E-Haidar in Pakistan?

Ok. I checked out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nishan-E-Haider.
Looks like 2 out of 10 are Rajput Muslims for sure (Bhatti & Minhas).

The rest I can't tell. If you know then enlighten me.

But you do agree that historically the Turks have proved themselves to be superior warriors than any other Indic group?

Just look at their track record. No offense intended.

(Though it is a different matter that once you leave Hinduism you cannot be called a rajput. But I guess blood does have something to do with bravery).

Also if you read marxist historians they do not leave any stone unturned in praising turks. In my opinion turks/afghans were not that good.

Have you had a chance to read this:
