Pawari or Bhoyari is an Indo-Aryan dialect of central India, exclusively spoken by the people of the Kshatriya Pawar caste. It is a dialect of the Rajasthani Malvi language, primarily spoken in the regions of Betul, Chhindwara, Pandhurna and Wardha districts by the people of Kshatriya Pawar caste. It is the same language these people used to speak in their original homes in Rajasthan and Malwa. Between the 13th and 17th centuries, the Pawars migrated from Rajasthan and Malwa to the Satpura and Vidarbha regions, settling primarily in Betul, Chhindwara, Pandhurna, and Wardha districts. This language is exclusive to the Pawar community; no people of other castes speak this language, clearly showing the connection of Pawars to Rajasthan and Malwa.
