Yadav Community
The Yadav Community is a prominent social group in India, primarily associated with agriculture and animal husbandry. They are traditionally known for their role in dairy farming, particularly in the production of milk and milk products. The community is predominantly found in states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Haryana, where they have a significant presence.
Historically, the Yadavs are believed to be descendants of Lord Krishna, who is often depicted as a cowherd. This connection to Krishna has fostered a strong cultural identity within the community. Over time, many Yadavs have also engaged in various professions, including politics and business, contributing to their socio-economic development.
