Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "चेतक" in Hindi language version.
Influx of the Kathiawari into Mewar was historically older, and apart from Charan traders regularly trading horses (a sub-class of Charans are known as ‘sauda’ barhats, such as those from Soniyana village in Mewar)... According to popularly held folk-view and backed by historical logic, Chetak was a Kathiawari stallion, presented as a young foal to Rana Pratap along with his older sibling Natak by Danti Charan traders. Chetak was believed to be bred at the Kathi darbar’s place in Bhimora village, in Chotila taluka of Surendranagar district. The Danti Charan traders were originally from village Khod near Chotila and subsequently were given grants of villages Gadhwada and Bhanol in Mewar. Till very recently, their descendants in these villages must have been well aware of this history. There is a story, perhaps apocryphal, of Rana Pratap selecting Chetak based on the spirit displayed by Natak when he was tested for swiftness of response.Cite journal requires
