And yes it is on pure hearsay. The Rajput ladies fled to Nepal with their servants and settled in the terai of Nepal.Later they marries their servants and some of them to the locals also. They still live in the farwestern terai and are called Rana tharus. Tharu is one of the indiginous groups. These Rana tharus are suppossed to be more sophisticated among them.The women serve food to their husband and move the plate with they feet but nowdays touch the plate with their toes, they donot clean their husband's plates.

They serve ‘Raakshi’, the homemade rice wine, in miniature ‘kulhads‘ as a welcome drink. I would have loved to make ‘raakshi‘ as a separate entry, but due to lack of space will include it here.
