- Summary:
- "The Tharu people, who are one of the indigenous people of Nepal, live on the southern plains of the country from the far east to the far west and the adjacent hills and valleys of Churia range called the inner Tarai. Most Tharus are known in terms of the territory they have occupied or they have migrated from. Although they are among the most marginalized and socially oppressed communities, their tangible and intangible cultural heritage is still alive and vibrant."--Container.
