A focused population profile of Bhojpuri Kshatriya people, their north Indian background, closest modern genetic matches, ancestry model, and World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Bhojpuri Kshatriya refers to Kshatriya or Rajput-associated communities from the Bhojpuri-speaking belt of eastern Uttar Pradesh and western Bihar.
Bhojpuri and Hindi are central to the regional setting. This reference sits in a north Indian upper-caste and Indo-Gangetic comparison space rather than a broad all-Bhojpuri average.
As a genetic reference, Bhojpuri Kshatriya is useful for comparison with Punjabi Lahore, Bengali Brahmin West Bengal, Malayali Brahmin Nambudiri, Tamil Nadu Brahmin Iyer, Telugu Brahmin, Telugu Brahmin Vaidiki, Marathi Brahmin Chitpavan, Bihari Brahmin Bhumihar, Andhra Pradeshi Brahmin, and Eastern Uttar Pradeshi Brahmin.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Bhojpuri Kshatriya is Bhojpuri Muslim Shia. Other nearby references include Bengali Brahmin West Bengal, Khandeshi Maratha, Malayali Brahmin Nambudiri, and Tamil Brahmin Iyer Tamil Nadu. This gives the Bhojpuri Kshatriya profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestry breakdown gives deeper component proportions, while closest matches show modern similarity. Bhojpuri Kshatriya ancestry is best interpreted through the Indo-Gangetic and upper-caste South Asian context, close to Bihari Bhumihar, eastern Uttar Pradeshi Brahmin, Punjabi, Bengali Brahmin, and several Brahmin references from other regions.
The heatmap should emphasize eastern Uttar Pradesh, western Bihar, the Bhojpuri belt, the Indo-Gangetic plain, Punjab/Lahore-related references, Bengal, and broader upper-caste South Asian comparison zones.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Bhojpuri Muslim Shia. Other nearby references include Bengali Brahmin West Bengal, Khandeshi Maratha, Malayali Brahmin Nambudiri, and Tamil Brahmin Iyer Tamil Nadu.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Bhojpuri Muslim Shia is the closest listed match to the Bhojpuri Kshatriya average after removing Bhojpuri Kshatriya itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Bhojpuri Kshatriya G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
