Whether to serve food to a guest who comes to the house or to give a plate of food to the family members, people respectfully keep it in front of the diner. Even when food is given to a needy person, a plate is served in front of him by holding it with his hands, but have you ever heard that a woman served the plate by kicking her husband with her foot! (Women kick plate to serve food) Of course it sounds very shameful to hear, but in reality it happens in a tribe. Even today this strange custom (Weird tradition around the world) is believed in this tribe.
In the southern part of Nepal and northern part of India, Tharu tribe lives near the Terai region. It is believed that they used to be Rajputs who migrated from the Thar Desert towards Nepal. They are Hindu and worship Lord Shiva. It is believed that about 1.7 lakh people of Tharu tribe live in India while their number in Nepal is more than 1.5 million. The most bizarre tradition of this tribe is to give food by kicking it.
