When title mislead itself: A story of Word "KHAN"
KHAN is a Turkish title often used in the Court of Ottoman Empire and does not mean essentially a pukhtoon or pushtoon. basically it was a title and nothing to do with ethnicity. in Pakistan, Iran and India the word KHAN is wrongly interpretive as Pukhtoon. even some pukhtoon intellectuals too gave such notions in order to strengthen their nationalist bias. in past many Punjabi Sindhi Bengali used this title but they were neither ethnically pukhtoons nor have any relation with central Asia.
