Born in Arghakanchi district of western Nepal, Yuba Raj Pandey took a long journey to become the secretary of Nepal government. After completing his tenure, 54 year-old Pandey is retiring from his position as a secretary to National Planning Commission.

Like Pandey many secretaries have already retired from their positions but only a few have written a book sharing their experiences. In his book Yatra Ra Anubhooti, Pandey discusses his entire life beginning from his school days.

The book includes his struggles for promotion, in family life and in other surroundings. Pandey observes the transformation of his society, village, family and entire civil society in the last two and half decades of his service.

He narrates about his marriage in rural surroundings, his study and finally the life of Kathmandu valley when he passed the examination of section officer from the Public Service Commission. Although the book is published in low cost paper, one can find a lot of interesting events in the book including mundane life of rural people, family costumes and values.

Pandey did not hesitate to narrate the story and events about himself and his family. The difficulties he faced during the early days of career and the old Kathmandu where only a few buses and vehicles ran in the city when he lived in a rented house. He became a section officer in 1987, was promoted to assistant secretary in 1993 and joint secretary in 1999. He secured all his promotions through open competition.

Pandey has a number of creative works to his credit: novels, short stories, poems and book on administration. His new book is also interesting to read. For the younger generation, the book reads like a story of many centuries ago. The transformation which one is experiencing today was out of imagination a few years ago.

As he is going to retire from civil service, what he gives is a very valuable and interesting book to his readers and colleagues. One can learn many things from his memoire where he honestly places all the incidents he has faced. e type your text here.
