* "Hal" (हल): This means "plough".
* "Dhar" (धर): This means "holder" or "possessor".
Therefore, "haldhar" literally means "plough holder" or "one who holds the plough".
Figuratively, it refers to:
* A farmer: Someone who works the land and uses a plough.
* A worker: Someone who toils and earns a living through their labor.
* A person of strength and endurance: The act of ploughing requires physical strength, so "haldhar" can also imply someone who is strong and capable.
The word "haldhar" is not used as commonly as other words for farmer like "kisan" (किसान) but it is still a valid and understandable term.
