Sidhu is a Punjabi Jat clan (got) found in Punjab. The Sidhus have had a significant impact on Sikh history. The clan can be divided into sub-clans, known as moohis, with the principal ones being: Maloke, Khokharke, Brar, Saboke, Mohanke, Phoolke, Pirke, and Rosike.
During British Raj, historians like H. A. Rose and Alexander Cunningham note an account of local bards (bhatts), which state the clan descends from a Bhatti clan progenitor named Sidhu Rao, whom had maternal alliance with Gill Jats. Their descendants are thus the Sidhu Jats.
