A gaj, also known as a guz or a Mughal yard, is a unit of length equal to that of 1 English yard. It is most commonly used in the Indian subcontinent, where it was introduced by the Mughal emperors sometime in the 17^th century. The measurement itself then went through a few changes due to local needs, before it was uniformly made equivalent to 1 Imperial yard.
