Worried

Nepali citizens seem worried about the future of their nation because of the on-going political polarization among the so called big political parties who continue to flex their political muscles for their own sake. It seems that the country is sooner or later going to enter into another phase of political and social conflicts. The Maoist led 32 political parties do not seem to budge from their initial demand of Regmi’s resignation from the position of Chief Justice (CJ), while Regmi says he won’t resign. This has remained a sticking point as to whether the CPN-M will take part in November 10 election or not.

After coming back from attending UN general assembly in New York, Regmi still thinks that the proposed election will be held on the stipulated date. How can he even think of holding the CA election by sidelining the 33 political parties and using the security forces? For whose sake, is the Regmi government determined to hold the CA election that demands the representation of all the political parties and the Nepali people? What has compelled him not to resign from the position of CJ? Who are behind the scene for barring him and the big parties from using their common sense at this time of political uncertainty? Why don’t they realize the consequences of holding the election using security forces? This is the constitutional assembly election not the parliamentary election.

Nepal is an independent and sovereign country. The senior political leaders should let Nepal and Nepalese live with full honour and dignity.

Causes and consequences of self-immolation

Self-immolation—the act of setting oneself on fire—is one of the most extreme, painful, and lethal forms of self-harm and suicide. Globally, it represents a profound intersection of psychiatric distress, intense social strain, and political expression. Causes of Self-Immolation: The underlying motivations for self-immolation vary significantly across different regions, cultures, and socioeconomic demographics. ·      Political and Ideological Protest: In Western nations and certain East Asian histories, self-immolation is highly associated with political statement . Individuals use it as a highly visible, shocking public act to draw attention to perceived systemic injustices, war, or government policy. ·      Severe Psychiatric Illness: Globally, a vast majority of individuals who attempt self-immolation suffer from severe, often untreated mental health conditions. The most common diagnoses include major depressive disorder , schizophren...

Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously

  Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously The people are tired of politicians who make wonderful promises but have miserably failed to fulfill their rosy promises. As a result, they seem to be gradually losing their credibility by days. However, having said that, the level of political awareness among the majority number of the people is still low which has been the advantage for the politicians to lure them towards their irresponsible and dirty politics. In the recent past weeks, we saw thousands of innocent people out in the streets to cheer up the so-called senior leaders who have miserably failed to lead the nation. We can see now the senior leaders and their parties are busy in forming another coalition government following the Supreme Court’s decision to nullify the unification of NCP a few days ago thus splitting the CPN-UML and CPN-Maoist. It was, in fact, a huge legal blow to them. This situation has created another political chaos in the country which might in...

A Legend Falls: Remembering Mountaineering Icon Nirmal Purja

The mountaineering world has lost one of its brightest, most unstoppable lights. It is with a profoundly heavy heart that I wish to express my profound grief over the tragic passing of Nirmal “Nimsdai” Purja, who lost his life alongside his brave crew in a devastating avalanche on Broad Peak, Pakistan. To say Nimsdai was a legend is an understatement. He was a force of nature who redefined the absolute limits of human endurance and capability. From shattering world records by climbing all 14 of the world’s highest peaks in just six months, to leading the historic first winter ascent of K2, he showed the world that "nothing is impossible." More importantly, he brought long-overdue pride, global recognition, and respect to the Nepali climbing and Sherpa community. Nims now rests eternally among the giant peaks he loved and conquered so fiercely. His fearless spirit, boundless energy, and ultimate motto—"Giving up is not in the blood"—will live on forever in the h...
