Chhantyal

Nowadays, owing to the migration trend there is a notable population of the Chhantyals in Kathmandu Valley, Pokhara, Rupandehi, Kaski, Dang and Chitwan districts.British and Indian Gurkha army, gulf countries, Malaysia, Japan, USA, Australia and Europe have been some of the destination for foreign employment in recent years.They give animal sacrifices on trees, hills, sources of water and other special places like farms and at the altar inside a house etc.Because of Hinduism's overwhelming pressure in the 19th century, Chhantyals have adopted a mixed worshiping style.The 2011 Nepal census classifies the Chhantyal as a subgroup within the broader social group of Mountain/Hill Janajati.
