Corona Virus Outbreak in Nepal!

-

 Whilst the government is taking no active preventive measures, a step taken by Lalitpur Metropolitan of preparing sanitizer is a step ahead and commendable.

But is lack of sanitizers the prime reason for the raipd spread of #Covid19?

While the most developed countries in the America and Europe, have locked down the schools, colleges, industries, corporate organizations to self quarantine and isolate themselves, we are busy today preparing for examinations-the iron gate they call it, the SEE examinations.

Even now, there are number of people even inside the valley who are completely unaware about the #CoronavirusOutbreak. They don't know what it is and might not have been able to get themselves a test. So we can imagine the situation in those remote vilages in the country.

The negative results yet so far is a matter of happiness but based on few results can we draw a generalisation that Nepal is not in a panic situation during a worldwide #pandemic?

God forbid if it spreads here, we can't imagine how worst it might get. 

Avoiding public gathering is the first thing we can do, but how is it possible without the proper considerations because taking the temperature of students before they enter the classroom isn't enough.

Is preparation or prevention the step we should be taking?

I extend my sincere apology to anyone who is hurt through the post. I am not a Newar, but I've lived most of my life in Patan.

More than anything I respect the sentiments and their thrive to save every little part of their culture. I've seen the Jatras and also understand the sentiments attached to it. I saw several posts that flooded on my social media feed, numerous memes that were made, and read several Newar and other communities blame game, the hatred people spill out on each other's ethnicity, culture and tradition. Hey you! Yes, you! I heard that you were craving to go to Lahana ever since the lockdown begun to satisfy your cravings for the delicious chhoila and chyang! Oh, not to mention your love for the ...

Imperfecto?

-
No they aren't Romeo and Juliet.  She likes to eat junk, his lifestyle is rather focused on fitness. She likes the privacy of their relationship, he'd rather want her to confess.. No, they aren't alike. But don't they say that the opposites attract? She likes to cuddle and sleep, he wants a peck of kiss. She likes to read novels, he loves to watch movies. No, they aren't the perfect couple. But don't they say that the perfects distract? She likes to talk and dance and sing and eat, he looks at her, all imperfections he sees. She likes to take pictures abstract, he prefers portraits as he strikes a pose on his seat. No, they don't just express love for each other always. But didn't you say love fades as you adapt?  They are like Tom and Jerry. They are like "Hum" and  "Tum. They are like rainbows and rain. Crying together but smiling at the end as they forget the pain. Oh yes! They have one thing is common, they both like to dance and both ...

Privilege, Perception, and Breaking Assumptions, One Earned Step at a Time

-
Pragya talks about "Privilege, Perception, and Breaking Assumptions, One Earned Step at a Time" Yes, I am a second-generation lawyer. And yes, I am someone’s daughter. That is a fact. It does come with certain privileges—doors open faster, networks build more easily, and I often don’t have to start from ground zero. I acknowledge that completely. But what people often don’t see is what comes with that privilege—the weight of constantly being judged. My achievements are casually dismissed with, “Well, of course, she knows that she’s grown up around it.” But when I fail? That failure is celebrated—“Even with all that support, she couldn’t do this.” First of all, let me make one thing clear—we don’t sit around the dinner table discussing legal codes and courtroom strategies. My parents never raised me with legal books on the dining table. We talk like any other family does. We share stories about our day, we laugh, we listen, and sometimes, sure, something from work slips in...
