v1.c19.8
Forgetful of their ancient past the modern Bhañjas employed some extremely ignorant person to carve out a Rajput genealogy for them in the 17th or the 18th century. From epigraphical and historical documents it can be proved that the Bhañja rulers occupied and ruled over parts of Orissa, almost in unbroken succession, till our times, and at the end of the examination of the documents relating to them one must come to the only possible conclusion, that the present Bhañjas are lineal descendants of the ancient Bhañjas.
