POLITICS: Left, Right…Right Left…..No Right, No Left

Pushpa Kamal Dahal, commonly known as Prachanda, has secured the support of a diverse group of political parties, including a liberal democrat party, a communist party, and a right-wing party. However, this is not unusual in Nepali politics and that "rainbow alliances" have been a characteristic of the political process in Nepal for the past 70 years. In the last seventy years of modernization of the political process, such surprising rainbow alliances remain the main character of Nepali politics.

Mingbo Airstrip Story

It is interesting that Edmund Hillary was instrumental in "preparing" the landing strip in the mountain pasture of Mingbo (4,573m) in the shadows of AmaDablam around that time and was approached by Capt.

Insights And Qualms Of Conservationists

Nitin later sent me his iconoclastic book What’s Left of the Jungle: a conservation story, which I have just finished reading. And I must admit, it is among the few books that I haverecently encountered which not only provides a sharp picture of the convoluted challenges environmentalists face in the Global South but also helps many like me reflect on our own, often unsatisfactory, past efforts to right the wrongs we have encountered.

Perpetual Instability

People are not that keen about who ascends to the seat of power because no leader so far has shown genuine concern for the suffering of Nepalis and done something to relieve them of anxieties emanating from different sides at different periods of time.
