Indian film maker insults Nepal : Insulting and humiliating the Nepalese nationals by the citizens of the neighboring Indian Republic, which only came into existence, 1947, thanks the British East India Company, is not a new phenomenon.


Nepal-Poland Relations: Now 52 years old : By the way, I wish to assure Ambassador Pradhan that Poland now needs a Consul General who would represent Nepal. I am sure, if this office gets established in Poland, once again thousands of Polish tourists will head towards the land of their choice.


Dr. Rizal ko beizzat bhayo aslil Hindi gana ley : Chanting of dirty slogans and ugly songs inside the Nepal’s money spinner CA body has become a common phenomenon.


Nepal ZoP recharged, thanks Isabelle Duquesne : The long forgotten issue has very freshly been brought to the world attention once again. Thanks Isabelle Duquesne, the writer of the book “Nepal: Zone of Peace”. The book has a touch of Hindu religion because the very cover has Om printed. Omkar embodies the universe.


Biratnagar Nepal school days recalled: Dear Prahlad, I miss you : Prahlad, I must admit, was not only brilliant but a hard working student. Perhaps he was the class topper each year in the annual examinations. He used to tell me “Narendra! You must double your study hours...”.


Nepal’s ZoP proposal fused with Women and Peace Seminar : He took King Birendra’s ZoP as a good proposal and appealed the government of the day to reconsider in reviving this issue which, he maintained, could become an effective tool for regional security.


Magadh Emperor Chandra Gupta's Nepali linkage : Hari Narayan Apte, an eminent Indian scholar in his book entitled “Chanakya and Chandra Gupta”, clearly mentions in his carefully written book that Chandra Gupta was the son of a KIRATI girl, Mura Devi. He also mentions that Mura Devi hailed from the mountains wherein Kirats lived then and continue to live still. We the Nepalese have to our fame the presence of Kirateshwar Mahadev (Lord Shiva) who hails, we have been told, from this area. It should be right in this area where Arjun, the great warrior of the Mahabharata era, was blessed by Lord Shiva in his KIRAT form.


Maharishi ‘Ved Vyas’ son of Nepali soil : Only recently I could learn that Maharishi VED VYAS, the great saint who penned the voluminous epic, “The Maha Bharat” was himself a Nepali first and later only a Brahmin by birth.


Homage to Nepal industrialist late TR Dugar : Later my father, now late, told us that he was an emerging Biratnagar industrialist, Tola Ram Dugar. Though late Dugar was some years junior to my father yet they were good friends. After all, Biratnagar had limited number of families.
