The Sansi community claims Rajput ancestry. It is believed they were expelled from Rajasthan, India, by Muslim invaders in the thirteenth century. Dispossessed of their homeland, the Sansi first migrated to Punjab and then to other regions, including Pakistan, at the time of partition. The Sansi have two divisions, Mahla and Behdoo, based on the names of their ancestors. These two divisions are further divided into twenty-three clans, each named after its respective ancestor.
