The origin of Kachawa Clan is mainly Uttar Pradesh. Kachawa clan is generated from there. The first kachawa clan is a branch of suryavanshi from Ayodhya, UP.

The king of Ayodhya , Raja Ramchandra had two sons, Luv and Kush.

Kachawa is the dynasty of the elder son of Raja Ramchandra “Kush”.

The clan of Kush is mainly known as “Kushwaha” in Uttar Pradesh.

 Hence, from time to time they have spread over north India.

Origin of Kachawa from Bihar

The origin of Kush dynasty came to Saket( presently known as Faizabad). Then from Saket they moved to Rohitashgarh and settled. They made Rohtash Durg and ruled over their.

In todays scenario, they are known as “Kushwaha”.

The Kuldevi of Kachawa Vansh is Jamwai Mata which is situated near Jamwaramgarh. It is 35 km from Jaipur. This village Jamwaramgarh got its name from the presence of Jamwai mata temple in it. The temple is surrounded by lots of greenery and mountains that’s why it looks very attractive and beautiful.

The temple was founded by Dulhe rai son of Sodhdev.

Before the arrival of Kachawa dynasty, this place was called Manch and ruled by meenas.

There is a story behind the completence of the temple. Dulhe rai fought with Meenas but he had to face defeat. Then one day his kuldevi showed up to him and told him the path to win the battle and achieve victory. He again fought with Meenas and defeated them and won the battlefield.

Then he named the place as Jamwa Ramgarh in the memory of Kuldevi Jamwai Mata.
