The Jatiya/Jatiya were historically a Hindu, Sikh sub-group descended from the caste of leather-tanners known as the Chamar.^[1]^[2]

History

According to the book The Chamar written by Briggs, George Weston, the Jatia or Jatua are found in large numbers in Punjab around Delhi and Gurgaon. They are agriculturists, skin traders and shoemakers. Some of the cultivating sections of this sub-caste do not make leather. Some of the shoemakers do not repair shoes. In some places, especially in the Punjab, the Jatias work on horse and camel skins and refuse to touch cattle hides. ^ Some of the skin traders are rich, and live as comfortably as the high caste Hindus.On the other hand, it is also said that they received the services of Gauda Brahmins, which placed them above all other Chamars, who had to be satisfied with the services of the outcast Chamarva Brahmin.

Today some Jatavs call themselves Jatiya Chamar but Jatiya Chamars live in Punjab, Haryana, Himachal, Jammu and these Chamars marry Ramdasiya Chamars whereas Jatavs do not have the right to do so and Jatavs have described themselves as Yaduvanshi Kshatriyas in Jatav Mahasabha whereas Jatiya Chamars say that they are descendants of Ramdas Chamar and Jatti Mother who live in Punjab, Haryana, Himachal, Jammu. Hence Jatav and Jatiya are two different sub-castes.

Religion

Most of the people of Jatia Chamar community are associated with Hindu and Sikh religions.

Along with the mainstream religious identity, Jatia Chamar community also follows Guru Ravidas.
