After a long time and because of the growing influence of Islam, many Sengars emigrated from North India. Sengar Rajputs mostly migrated to the south and are also found in Sri Lanka.

In the 3rd century they went to Kutch-Gujarat with the army of King Vikramaditya.

Pray for workers who are driven by the love and boldness of the Holy Spirit to go to them.
