ADMIN WORRIES

The Kathmandu Post
16 march 2012
IT is a disgraceful to see the only women secretary Brinda Hada being verbally humiliated by Minister of irrigation Mahendra Yadav and his aids over the mass transfer of civil servants (“Minister’s wrath falls on senior secy” March 15, Page 1). The representatives of the agitating employees met with Prime Minister to discuss the incident, but we are yet see what action Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai will take in response to this episode.

In addition, both the political actors and the civil servants are equally responsible for inviting the current situation. Such highly politicized bureaucratic systems are not found elsewhere around the world. This unhealthy situation hurts not only the civil servants and political actors but also the ordinary people.

Health Tips- Antibiotic resistance

  Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest public health threats in our generation.   When antibiotics lose their power, bacterial infections become harder to treat, leading to higher medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and increased mortality. Antibiotics are losing their power because of misuse and overuse in humans and animals. Make sure you only take antibiotics if prescribed by a qualified health professional. And once prescribed, complete the treatment days as instructed. Never share antibiotics. No overdose and misuse of antibiotic 🙏😄 Source: World Health Organization

Never undermine people's voices

Hami Nepal is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting communities and individuals in need, guided by its motto ‘For the People, By the People’. Its core mission is to assist individuals and communities in need, particularly during emergencies and crises, with a focus on directly connecting donors with recipients, and delivering aid efficiently and transparently. It was set up after the 2015 earthquake, but was formally registered and gained recognition in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic. Hami Nepal is led by 36-year-old civic activist Sudan Gurung, and mentored by renowned ophthalmologist Sanduk Ruit. Gurung started the organisation after he lost his own son in the 2015 earthquake, and now has over hundreds of thousands of members, growing by the hour. With the old guards gone, there is a power vacuum with multiple actors with competing interests to fill it. GenZ’s youth-led activism has brought new energy for political reform. However, its real test begins now — whethe...

Undermining Gen-Z's demands

  The nation witnessed Kathmandu’s skies glowing red, smoke and fire filled the night, burning down carefully selected homes of political leaders and reducing decades of failed politics to ashes   on September 8–9, 2025 (2082 Bhadra 23–24),.   Angry Gen-Z protesters directly targeted the private residences of nation’s top leaders. Their chant was clear and sharp: “Enough! Is Enough”. So-called senior leaders who had repeatedly pushed the nation into crisis were flatly rejected at their very doorsteps. Former prime ministers K. P. Sharma Oli, Sher Bahadur Deuba, Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda,’ Madhav Kumar Nepal, Dr. Baburam Bhattarai, and Jhala Nath Khanal were the first to face the fury. They were the leaders who played political musical chairs for decades yet failed to deliver stability.   The protesters’ angry did not stop there. The properties of so-called “second generation” leaders—Gagan Thapa, Bishwa Prakash Sharma, Mahesh Basnet, Gokul Baskota, R...
