Pathania is the name of a branch of the Tomara gotra of Chandravanshi Rajputs, who claim a mythological descent from Arjuna, the hero of the Mahabharata. They mostly live in and around Himachal Pradesh, in North India. They established the kingdom of Nurpur in Himachal Pradesh during the 11th century and ruled there until 1849.
