  • International Women’s Day

    A woman is like a tea bag, you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water- Eleanor Roosevelt.

    As I look back, 2014 marked the beginning of a new chapter in my life. Fresh from completing my Ph.D. and a postdoctoral in the Republic of Korea, IK returned to Nepal filled with hope and enthusiasm for the journey ahead. Little did I know that the next 11 years would be the most challenging yet transformative period of my life- both professionally and personally.

    However, it was also the best learning period, it shaped me into the person I am today. Every women, whether mother, sister, or friend are equally important in life. Helping and empowering each other is the most beautiful feeling. It is often said behind every successful man there is supportive women and I must add that behind every successful women there is also a progressive man- a Father, brother or husband who stands by her, believes in her and champions her dreams.

    Lets cherish the moment this International Women’s day 2025 and celebrate the strength of women, the power of unity and the importance of creating a world where everyone, regardless of gender can thrive. We need to support, empower and inspire one another, for together, we can achieve greatness.

    Here’s to the women who rise, the men who stand beside them, and the collective journey toward equality and empowerment. Happy International Women’s Day.

  • Let’s be reasonable and united

    Let’s be reasonable and united

    Pursuit of happiness is wanted by all and sought after. Our country Nepal is facing the revolutionary changes from time to time. Either it’s in name of democracy, Federal Democratic Republic or so called federalism. From past 1 month the Terai region and some eastern region of our country is in turmoil in name of protest to get one single province for group of Terai. However, I wonder if its real wish of the general public in those region. We should be united in this situation being a Nepali rather than being discriminating as caste, region or group. Besides everything and before all we are Nepalese. The rules and regulations and constitution being passed are mostly focused on some group of people rather than general public. No one in the nation should go beyond the constitution. However, most of our nation leaders don’t seem to understand beauty and power of constitution and general public. It’s really absurd that few people who longed for power and position are blindfolded with their own selfishness and personal benefits they cannot see the problem of general public.

    They are always tempering with the future of our nation i.e. especially students. Education system is getting a lot of trouble due to ongoing strikes; people are getting trouble with the daily duties and work. It’s really intolerable when the leader doesn’t have vision and talk nonsense. Those words and promises are just instating the hatred among the group of people in our country. However, I believe that our general public will realize the real motive of this strike. For the genuine cause and for our rights we need to fight, raise our voice and show demonstration. However, we need to screen if it’s really worth for who we are sacrificing our lives.

    Our country Nepal has always been a sovereign nation. We are the living legend of mixture of various ethnic and religious group. Integrity in diversity is our best motto. We never knew to surrender our dignity in front of the external forces that would come to hamper our country. United We Stand I hope our country men will not be puppet of the one who wants to breaks unity in our country. We should always remember before belonging to any ethnic or group or political parties we are Nepalese. We love our country Nepal and we should always be one.

    I hope very soon everyone will realize this and come to the solution of the problem our country is facing. Finally I would like to recite one beautiful Nepali song  “ Nepali hami rahaula kaha nepalnai narahe”  by Natikaji.

  • Catastrophe

    Catastrophe

    Our country Nepal is in catastrophe, due to devastating earthquake that took place at 25th April and 12th May 2015. We lost our historic monuments, many people lost their houses, family and property. Infra structure of our country suffered a terrible lost. This tragedy has caused mental trauma in many of us. I feel very terrible remembering this event. It feels like we survived but till when. It’s already been weeks from first hit of earthquake I feel as we are awaiting another terrible moment to come. One question always hit my mind will this end or there is lot more to come along with suffering. Our country is now in turmoil, it may take ages to be out in normal condition. Thousands lost their life and injured, and millions became homeless. Lots of rescue and foreign aid is here to help us. Slowly all the victims are getting the relief and facility provided by the government. Many countries, individuals’ organization and celebrity have promised for financial aid however, I wonder if it is used properly in proper place. It makes me very sad to realize that our country lacks a good leader who can handle situation wisely and perfectly. This time I would just like to pray for, our country and countrymen, let us be strong and fight back this situation though it’s not an easy task to do.
