Mathur Community

We are a sub-caste of the larger Kayastha community. Our ancestors ruled over Mathura till it was conquered by Qutab-ud-din. Later on, their descendants accepted vital administrative posts in the same area under the Surya Vanshi family. Noted writer Anurag Mathur and the legendary sarod maestro Sharan Rani Backliwal Mathur belong to our caste.
