Guthi (guthi गुथि in newari, guṭhī गुठी in Nepālī, etymologically from Sanskrit goṣṭhī गोष्ठी) is a social organization that is used to maintain the socio-economic order of Nepalese society. The guṭhī system has been in operation since the Licchavi era, with the first practice being recorded in scriptures on pillars erected at Changu Narayan temple, which in itself is regarded to be the oldest dated inscription of Nepal. Currently, most of the guṭhīs are either defunct or a vestigial representation of what used to be the most powerful organized community of the Newars. However, some of these guṭhīs still exist with its own purpose, and their functions governed by the internal unwritten rules; often kept secret and revealed only to its members. During the course of time, the male family members (often the bloodline) of pre-existing members are handed out the responsibilities associated with the guṭhī. The "Guthi Bill", tabled in the Upper House of the Federal Parliament of Nepal on April 2019, was highly controversial and prompted a number of mass protests against the bill, especially in the Kathmandu Valley. Guthi came to being after the realisation of people of working together, esuring their lives and working together for same objective. The member of Guthi are called Guthiyars. There are three type of guthi.
