The Khangura is a gotra (clan) of Jatts from the Punjab region in India.
The name Khangura comes from Persian, meaning "Khan the follower of the guru". One of the powerful Khan rulers of erstwhile Punjab was deeply influenced by the teachings of the Sikh gurus. His descendants carry the Khangura name and completely converted to Sikhism during the time of Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh prophet (Guru) (1621–1675) and Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh prophet (guru) (1666–1708). The Khangura clan is almost all adherents of Sikhism now.
