Rajasthan Yadav Mahasabha

The Rajasthan Yadav Mahasabha is a caste-based community organisation established to serve a broad body of Indian social groups collectively known as the Yadav caste. The educated elite among the Yadavs instigated the formation of the Rajasthan Yadav Mahasabha (RYM) in Rajasthan. It immediately engaged itself in two issues, appealing to its members in all regions to add Yadav to their names and at the same time launching a major programme to effect social reform.
In the mid-20th century, the RYM pressed the Government of India to form a Yadav regiment in the Indian Army, following the performance of some caste members in the Sino-Indian War at Rezang La in Jammu and Kashmir on 18 November 1962.
