Nikah as in Islam. Despite pressure by the Gorwal khanzadas of Alwar and Bharatpur, who ruled in the region, the Meo Rajput community decided not to migrate to Pakistan during the Partition of India. In 1947, Mahatma Gandhi visited Ghasera, a village in present day Nuh district to urge the Muslims living there not to leave, calling the Meos “Iss desh ki reed ki haddi” or the backbone of India. But many peoples of Meo Rajput Gotras were migrated to Pakistan during partition in 1947.They were mostly settled in Pakistani Districts, Sialkot, Lahore, Karachi, Narowal, Dera Ghazi khan, Shiekupura, Gujranwala, Multan, Haiderabad ,Kasur.etc Cultural aspects Marriage and kinship customs Meos was generally do not followed the Muslim law of inheritance and so among them, like various other communities in the region, custom makes a younger brother or a cousin marry the widow of the deceased by a simple Nikah ceremony.but now Meo Rajputs are follows all laws of Muslims. The Meo Rajputs have been subject to a number of recent ethnographic studies. These books have dealt with issues such as marriage and self-perception of the community. Raymond Jamous studied kinship and rituals among the Meo Rajputs and wrote a book. Geography and demography The boundary of Mewat region is not precisely defined. The region largely consists of plains but has hills of Aravali range. The inconsistency in Mewat topography is evident from its patches of land with hills and hillock of the Aravali on the one hand and plains on the other. The region is semi-arid with scanty rainfall and this has defined the vocations the Meos follow. They are peasants, Agriculturists(Zameendars),Jagirdars and cattle breeders. Meo gotra Meo profess the beliefs of Islam but the roots of their ethnic structure are in Hindu caste society. Meos claim high-caste Muslim Rajput descent. This may be true for some of them. However, some of them may be descendants of other Kashtriya castes who might have laid claim to Rajput ancestry after converting to Islam. The names of many gots (gotra) or exogamous lineages of Meos Rajputs are common with other Hindu Rajputs, Gujjars, Jats, Rajas who live in their vicinity. It thus seems possible that the Meos belonged to many different Kashtriya castes and not just to the Hindu Rajputs (Aggarwal 1978:338)., but this phenomenon is also seen in other Rajput communities and not limited to the Meos Rajputs, in particular..Meo Rajputs
