is rajma a pulse - #24594

I am totally confused about something and really need help here! I love cooking and recently started exploring healthy options, but then I got stuck. Was making a curry the other day with rajma, which I thought was a pulse, but then I read somewhere that it might not be classified as one. Is rajma a pulse or not? I mean, it's commonly used like other beans and pulses, right? Also, I’ve been feeling bloated since I added it to my diet. Like, every time I have rajma, my stomach feels heavy, and I get these weird gas bubbles (not fun!). I’m trying to figure out if it’s the rajma or if maybe I’m just not cooking it right? Last time, I let it soak for hours, and I’m still not sure if that’s enough, but I thought pulses need to be soaked. Could this bloat be because I've overindulged in rajma? Should I keep eating it, or find some other pulse options? Help!
