Gurkhas in Destitute

Again, another hassle for minimum rights.

The Plight of ex-gurkha soldiers is horrible. Despite 'defame' endowed by the profession, they are living a life of destitute.

Daydream of ex-king in Nepal


Gyanendra Shah is in utter daydream! His reverie for 'majestic' comeback to the throne is nothing more than miscalculation of Nepalese people's aspiration for REPUBLICAN nation. Unfortunately, he and his entourages seem blind to the ground reality. While estimating to fish in the murky political scenario, he has made a bid for the 'guardianship'. But, whose guardian? For two centuries, monarchy in Nepal did worse than anything. It induced social injustice; inequality, discrimination, oppression and marginalization of communities, and what not. Nepalese people have not forgotten his atrocity; the coup, let alone the long trenched mystery of royal massacre or the 'fratricides'.
