The Khanzada or Khan Zadeh are a cluster community of Rajputs found in the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan.
A notable community is the Khanzadas of Mewat, the descendants of Raja Nahar Khan, who are a sub-clan of Jadaun[citation needed].
[3][full citation needed][4] The Khanzada, however have been badly affected by abolition of the zamindari system, with many now destitute.
They still remain a land owning community, but those especially in Balrampur, Gonda and Bahraich are now simply agricultural labourers.
The community are also divided on sectarian lines, with the majority being Sunni, while a minority, mainly the ex-taluqdar families being Shia.
