Terai Samaj is a community organization established to connect and celebrate the vibrant culture, traditions, and people of Nepal's Terai (Madhesh) region. Based in Australia, we bring together community members to preserve our rich heritage, support one another, and ensure our customs and languages are passed on to future generations.
