Some theories of origin Of Burdak :-
As per records of the Bards the Jat Gotra Burdak got prominance after Rao Burdakdeo. Rao Burdak Dev went to Lahore to help Raja Jai Pal. He died in war in V.S. 1057 (1000 AD) and his wife Tejal of gotra Shekwal became sati in Dadrewa. Her chhatri was built on the site of Dadrewa pond in samvat 1058 (1001 AD). Here it is to be mentioned that Burdak existed earlier also but to remember the contribution of Rao Burdakdeo in history Bards have recorded so.Mahendra Singh Arya et all consider Burdaks to be the descendants of Maharaja Bahuka , who was a Suryavanshi King, son of Vrika.
