rājapūta
Notes
var. rajaputa, rajapūta, rājaputa; n. a member of the royal dynasty and high class Kṣatriyas such as Ṭhakurīs. Since the Mulukī Ain has not specified who falls under the category of the Rājapūta-class, the membership might have been defined on the basis of customary practices (the Mulukī Ain does not include the Cord-wearing Kṣatriyas in the Rajapūta class).
