Traditional narrative 'Bakso Barairi kahini'

Charumohan Rabha tells the traditional narrative 'Bakso Barairi kahini' about how Rabha clans were formed, including the Bakso, Torang, and Lem clans. In this story, villagers offered a girl to the snake king who lived in the hills every year. The main characters are two brothers who save a beautiful girl from being fed to the snake king by cheating him with a banana tree. Finally they succeeded, and the snake king was killed by the villagers. From then on, the villagers lived peacefully without fear. The clans were formed based on the roles the villagers played in defeating the snake king.
