Thapp jee, are you Bagale thapa or Parajuli thapa or pwar Thapa? Thapa actually is not a family name like Koirala or Bhattarai in which intermarriage is probhited according to Hindu rule. Rather it is like group name like Sharma.During Rana regime, all brahmin whoever used to go to military or whoever got married to a kshetriya were labelled Thapa.

But what I am surprised about is that some thapa look mongoloid like Magar.
