This article is incorrect. The British conquered Bhutan as part of British India.

Helicopters edit

The article mentions Mi-8 helicopters and a roundel, but after scouring the internet for hours, I wasn't able to find any confirmation on whether the royal army still operates an air component. Are the aircraft just an urban legend ? If anyone knows, please clarify this. Thanks ! --ZemplinTemplar (talk) 13:08, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Gurungs of Bhutan (Brahmo-Kshatriyas of Bhutan) edit 

The Gurungs(Brahmo-Kshatriya/Brahmo-Chhetri/Brahmo-Khatri) of Bhutan were known all over Bhutan and Arunachal Pradesh,India for their knowledge in various Hindu-Buddhist texts and their Martial Skills. Their origin traces back to reign of Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal when a small group of Gurungs/Tamu from Bhaktapur, Nepal migrted south-east towards Bhutan and South Tibet or Arunachal Pradesh. Most of them practiced a mixture of Bon and Shaktism caling it a sect of Gurung Dharma. Though Gurungs of Nepal never practiced ritualistic Vedic religion, this group of Gurungs were highly literate in Hindu as well as Buddhist texts. Their vast knowledge and astonishing martial skills impressed the Shabdrung so much, that he gave them the title or a new tribe name of Tiegpa-Ragmatso or Brahmo-Kshatriya as they called themselves in Sanskrit/Tibetan. Over the ages these gurungs mixed with Ngalops of Bhutan the most. They slowly started moving outside Bhutan in Sikkim, Assam, West Bengal, and Myanmar. Hence they started adopting extra surnames like Kregmaiteigo(Myanmar), Gogoi(Assam), Sengupta(Darjeeling and rest of Bengal), etc.
   Today they mostly enter into Military Affairs of Bhutan and India. Contact between Lhotshampas(recently migrted Nepalis) and Brahmo-Khatris had tensed so much that it resulted in a Tragic violence between them which led to the harrasment by the ethnic Bhutanese along with the Brahmo-Kshatriyas against the Lhotshamparis. Though the Lhotshamparis called the Brahmo-Kshatriyas, Gorkhas the Brahmo-Kshatriyas remained patriotic towards Bhutan, now their motherland. Many Historians mistake them to be the Kashmiri origin Khas-Bahuns of Nepal , but they are of a separate ethnicity and recognize themselves as Brahmo-Kshatriyas of Bhutan.
