Chonam festival is a special festival of the Chepang caste, a warrior caste of the Tibetan Varman community living around the Mahabharata mountain range. Very close to nature, agrarian and very friendly, the Chepangs are very famous for their open, fun and nomadic lifestyle. This community living in 44 districts including Tanahun, Gorkha, Chitwan and Dhading around 3000 meters near the forest edge and river has not been touched by the wave of urbanization, development and awareness. Their main religion is 'Bon' i.e. nature worship. Although their traditional lifestyle is also very enjoyable, however, it is necessary to accustom them to the basic infrastructure, structure and dimensions of development.
Chepang is a marginalized community and it is really necessary to protect and revive the culture of this community, today's Chonam festival is their Vadah Parva i.e. a festival like Dasai for Hindus, however, they complain that the government did not give a holiday on this festival of Chepang community, if they give a holiday on this day, all of Nepal will celebrate Chepang chonam.
