Godara (clan)
'''Godara''' is a [[clan]] or [[gotra]] of [[Jats]] found in [[Rajasthan]], [[Haryana]], [[Uttar Pradesh]] and [[Delhi]] in [[India]]. Many have also migrated to Western regions such as Gujarat or Pakistan. They are the descendants of Goha Dutta, a prince of the [[Mewar]] dynasty who was adopted by a Brahmin to fight against the Mohala [[Rajput]]s and his descendants come to be called Godara. Godara Jats were the rulers in [[Jangladesh]] before [[Rathores]] annexed it.  They are found in large number  in areas of formerly [[princely state]] of [[Bikaner]]. Chieftains of Sheiksar and Radanvan  belong to this gotra.  Bika Rathor was made a King by the people of this very gotra.
