Rawal (also spelled Raval) or Raol is a regional variation of the title Raja/Radjah (literally 'king') that was used by the Hindu Rajput rulers of some princely states of Rajputana and Western-India (notably Gujarat) and is at present too used as a caste designation or surname by the Guhila Rajputs and also adopted by few other communities. The term "Rawal" derives from the Sanskrit title "Rājakula".
