Ritik Roshan, the one-hit Indian film star, has
said that he has never said anything against Nepal
and Nepalis anywhere.
Evidence so far points out that Roshan has not said
anything against Nepal.
But, hey, who's collecting evidence
in Nepal?
Now, Suppose, suppose and suppose: Roshan had
INDEED said bad things against Nepal.
Then imagine, how easy it is for Nepalis in Nepal
to fight with one another destroy one another
totally.
That is to say, if one Indian actor's comments
against Nepal can incite three-day ko violence,
acts of killings, destruction and vandalism in Nepal,
then all our chimeki rastra -- assuming it wants
the worst in Nepal -- has to do is line up 120
actors/actresses and have each of them
say -- paa.lai pee.low -- bad things against
Nepal and Nepalis every fourth day.
We in Nepal -- who are, in Kabi Bhupi's words
"bir therefore buddhoo, and buddhoo therefore bir" --
will then end up killing one another, fighting with
one another, and basically destroy one another to
finish.
For India, what could be a more sure-fire way
to watch tiny Nepal self-destruct itself?
More later,
yours in sadness,

May be we are too gullible. Nationalism seems to be our underbelly
and jingoism seems to be our reaction.
India is damn against our interest.In our every predicament,it
will seek way to get benefit for itself.I have no doubt that this
protest is not against the actor only.It is wrath against
all what India has represented itself to Nepal.
But what we have done in the name of protest? Beating innocent
Indians walking in the road? Burning down Uddhab Paudel's
cinema hall? What these protesters have to do against these
civilian Indians? This is not civil way to protest.This is not
even a protest, this is probably just a mobbing,a lunatic rage.
It also proves that we are witnessing the lack of governance. Our
government is not capable of controlling mob. (By the way, Indian
businessmen can now pay Comrade Prachanda some million rupees and
ask him for appealing for calm, I am sure it will work.)
If there is any good thing this episode shows , then it is this:
India and those colonialists living in South Block and Janapath
Road, they should forget any of their expansionist dream. That
is not going to be productive.Somebody tell that to BBC too, btw.
