Rajputs of Nepal (Nepali: नेपालका राजपुत) or anciently Rajputras (Nepali: राजपुत्र) are Rajput Kshatriya community of Nepal.
There were various historical groups of Rajputs from ancient and medieval India that have immigrated to Kathmandu valley, Khas Malla Kingdom, Western hill regions and other Terai territories.
Today, only Madheshi/Terai Rajputs still list themselves as Rajputs in Nepal's census where as Newar and Khas Kshatriyas are counted separately. As per the 2011 Nepal census, the population of Madhesi/Terai Rajputs is reported at 41,972. The caste with the largest ratio of representation in the civil service in Nepal is, the Rajput, who have a presence in the civil service that is 5.6 times that of their presence in the population.[2]
