You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Thapa Kaji''' is a large [[social group]] of people of Jharra/Pure [[Chhettri]] caste ([[Kshatriya]] varna) in [[Nepal]]. Thapas of Uttrakhand And Himanchal State of India are considered as Pahari Rajput. Over a period of time, this community has spread to many parts of the world. The surname originated during the Khas Kingdom in Karnali region during middle age-it referred to a position/post of a warrior.((sfn|Adhikary|1997)) Chhetri is considered a derivative form of the Sanskrit word [[Kshatriya]].<ref name="google">((cite book|title=People of India: Uttar Pradesh (3 pts.)|author1=Singh, K.S.|author2=Anthropological Survey of India|date=2005|publisher=Anthropological Survey of India|isbn=9788173041143|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6QVuAAAAMAAJ|access-date=2017-06-11))</ref><ref name="google2">((cite book|title=Toni Hagen's Nepal: The Kingdom in the Himalaya|author1=Hagen, T.|author2=Thapa, D.|date=1998|publisher=Himal Books|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9LFuAAAAMAAJ|access-date=2017-06-11))</ref>

"Kaji" means administrator or ruler. It was a hereditary family title awarded to some famous Nepali [[Kshatriya]] castes like Thapa, [[Basnyat]]/[[Basnet]], [[Pande]], and Kunwar etc. Majority of Thapas Chhetri speak the Nepali language as mother tongue.((sfn|Adhikary|1997)) The Thapas Chhetris are divided into many sub-castes which are the:

* Bagale Thapa
* Godar Thapa
* Hriksen Thapa
* Lamichhane Thapa
* Panwar Thapa
* Suyal Thapa

Thapa Chhetri are found in different parts of current Nepal and some parts of Uttarakhand and Himachal State of India. Currently many of the Thapa Chhetri are found in Nepal, and parts of India i.e. Sikkim, Himachal, Assam as well as in Bhutan and Myanmar. The Thapa Chhetri are Kshatriya or varna like [[Basnyat]]/[[Basnet]] of Nepal.((sfn|Adhikary|1997))

Thapas were the major political and military figures during and after the unification of the Nepal. [[Bir Bhadra Thapa]] was a [[Thapa]] of [[Chhetri]] group<ref name="gnJuAAAAMAAJ">((cite book|title=Kings and political leaders of the Gorkhali Empire, 1768-1814|author=Regmi, M.C.|date=1995|publisher=Orient Longman|isbn=9788125005117|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=gnJuAAAAMAAJ|access-date=2017-06-11))</ref> and leading Bharadar during [[Unification of Nepal]].((sfn|Pradhan|2012|p=22)) His grandson [[Bhimsen Thapa]] became [[List of Prime Ministers of Nepal|Prime Minister of Nepal]] and established [[Thapa dynasty|Thapa faction]] in the central power.((sfn|Pradhan|2012|p=22)) Thapas were a major power base of Nepal in the 17th century starting from Mukhtiyar [[Bhimsen Thapa]] (first prime minister of Nepal).((sfn|Pradhan|2012)) Then it was carried out and shined by Major other historical Nepalese hero like [[Amar Singh Thapa]], [[Bhakti Thapa]], and [[Mathabarsingh Thapa]]. Due to the unique relation between royal family of Nepal and Thapas, they were always viewed close to royal family. The Rana who ruled Nepal for 104 years were established by [[Jung Bahadur Rana]] who rise in power by support of his maternal uncle, [[Mathabarsingh Thapa]] who was Prime Minister.((sfn|Pradhan|2012)) Modern Chhetri Thapa are [[Surya Bahadur Thapa]] was PM of Nepal for 5 times. Army chiefs [[Dharmapaal Barsingh Thapa]], [[Pyar Jung Thapa]]. [[Gagan Thapa]] also belongs to Chhetri family.<ref name="google3">((cite book|title=Battles of the New Republic: A Contemporary History of Nepal|author=Jha, P.|date=2014|publisher=Hurst & Company|isbn=9781849044592|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vcSHCwAAQBAJ&pg=PA63|page=63|access-date=2017-06-11))</ref>
