It’s a day when all Hindu devotees worship Lord Krishna. It’s the day when Lord Krishna came to this world. In Kathmandu, many people visit the Krishna Temple, pupularly known as “Krishna Mandir”, situated at Patan Durbar Square. These picture were taken at night, and it’s really the best time to visit this temple, the environment is really very good.
Yesterday, during Kumari Jatra or Indra Jatra, we witnessed our new monarch Sri 8 Maharajadhiraj Girija Babu. I never saw any of our prime ministers been escorted that way with so many convoy ahead and behind his vehicle. Traffic was halted and on top of that it was raining many people faced traffic jams. I too was stuck in that very traffic jam and every one was not happy with that act of our Prime Minister.
We still have King in our nation, he is not yet striped from his post, and the current parliament even can not do so as they have mention in new constitution that they will decide the future role of the king after CA polls.
We all were waiting for the result of the Indian idol 3, when Darjeeling’s Prashant Tamang was crowned Indian Idol 3, the first thing as a gift of being Indian idol was a Nepali Dhaka Topi from his mother. That is so emotional moment for all the Nepali I guess, it is the identity of being Nepali.
Where ever you live in this earth, but the Khukuri and Dhaka topi had always been Nepali’s identity in this world. No one will ask u from where you come from if you are wearing Dhaka Topi and Khukuri, they will straight away ask you, ” are you Nepali?” they won’t bother to ask you, If you are from Nepal, Darjeeling, Sikkim or Bhutan.

At present, if we go through our country Nepal’s condition, it is the worst condition that general public faced. No doubt the lives of the villagers were worst, but now the people living in the cities are having the worst time of their life.
Every day we are having protest and rallies which has been disturbing the traffic movement, no gasoline for vehicles and cooking, Riots for small cause. It’s really unsafe to walk even, you don’t know when riots will start and you have to run to save your life.
We really are not able to move ahead for the development of the country, after the 1991 people’s movement, when King Birendra gave power to the public, people could see some rays showing path for the development of the Nation, but before the development could take its full speed, many obstacle came. No political stability, the Maoist insurgency, Massacre in Royal Place. These are the major problem that Nepal faced after King handed democracy to the nation.
We have been hearing the saying “ROME WAS NOT BUILD IN ONE DAY”, exactly we cannot progress over night and give Nepal a status of develop country. We cannot dream Nepal moving towards progress until and unless there is a stable government, Peace in the country and a good law system.
Nepal Television is a government own TV Channel of Nepal. It’s used to be a sole Nepali TV channel for long time. This channel has helped Nepali to learn many things for many years and it gave many ideas about Nepal’s religion, culture, society, villages, and Life style of different part of Nepal to people who wanted to know about Nepal.
But since last year especially from the 2nd people’s movement, there have been certain changes in Nepal television too; it has become democratic in different way. It has forgotten that it is a national channel and government own, it has many responsibility towards Nation.
I felt bad when I saw the newsreader in this channel wearing western dress. Previously they used to wear our national dress Daruwa Suruwal by men and Sari by woman. Is this what we wanted as a change, as a New Nepal?
A decade back, when I used to hear news about Srilanka, Peru, Afghanistan I used to thank myself that I am living in a safe heavenly Nation called Nepal, but after listening to the news what happen yesterday in Kathmandu, it really made me sad. Am I safe in Kathmandu now? Throughout the Maoist revolution period Kathmandu was not this much terrified as it is now, but now it is unsafe to live for general unarmed public?
The news from Srilanka, Peru and Afghanistan a decade ago used to surprise me, every day I used to hear lots of people being killed in a bomb blast, lots of people been kidnapped, and now it is happening in my own country, it’s a daily news of Nepal at present. Nepal used to be a peaceful country, now it is burning hell. I am sure people who have been to Nepal a decade ago will get surprised to see Nepal as good as heaven turning into a Hell.
My mind is asking me, are we going to be next Srilanka, Afghanistan or Iraq? Will bomb blast, kidnapping will go on every day here? Will we have to live in terror every day? Will we ever again get a chance to breath in peace again? Will our parents have to worry every time when we get out of our house? Nepal was terrified by Maoist activities for last 10 yrs, and now when we thought of having a long time peace, and even one of the terai activist party came to agreement with the government, new problem came out, is this what we looked in democracy?
I support Local Empowerment. So, I’m sharing this Everest Base Camp Trek to promote a new way of trekking where trekkers can empower the local service providers like lodges, guides and porters by booking services directly through them. #empoweringthehimalayas #freetriptoeverest
