Traversing the Karnali heights

Sudhan Subedi @tweetsudhan

Day 1: Flight to Surkhet and Trekking Beginnings

Our journey commenced with a smooth flight to Surkhet, the headquarters of Karnali Province. From there, we embarked on an extraordinary trek, not your average stroll, but a voyage into the realm of mountaineering. Our destination: a ski training ground situated at a breathtaking altitude of 3250 meters—a height rivaling Australia’s tallest peak, Mount Kosciuszko.

Navigating through the picturesque landscapes, we ventured onwards, cutting short the usual trekking route by opting for a vehicle to Manma, the district headquarters of Kalikot. The journey, albeit peppered with the regular bumps along the Karnali Highway, took an unexpected turn when we encountered a dry landslide near Talo Dhungeswor, halting our progress for nearly four hours. Nonetheless, we persevered and arrived in Manma by nightfall.

Kathmandu's city centers such as New Road, Tundikhel, Ratnapark and Baneshwor had a little sign of life following a week-long national lockdown in effect since 6AM today. On the upside, the usually busy streets were clean and green.

मार्च ८ पछि महिला कुरो

र यसपटकको नारी दिवश झिरिप्प भयो । तेही दिनमा आफ्नै नारीलाई समय दिएकाले लेखिएन, आज समय जोहो गरेर, कुरो गुथेर लेख्न बसेको । अनि सुरु मै यो गीत तेही नारीलाई डेडिकेट गरियो, तपाँइ पनि सुन्नुस है

हुन त नारी हकका कुरा कुनै एक दिन सान्दर्भिक हुने बाँकि अरु दिन नहुने त होइन । फेरि यो चाडपर्व नि होइन सकिएपछि अर्को वर्ष नै कुर्नपर्ने । Read more

छोरो @११

सेक्रेट सुपरस्टार । क्लाइमेक्समा को हो सुपरस्टार भन्ने डायलग गज्जब लाग्छ । एउटा गीत हिट भएपछि अहिलेका कलाकारलाई स्टारडम अनि फ्यान सबै मिल्छ । रातारात सबै बद्लिन्छ । पराइ आफन्त भइसक्छन् । जमिन आकास भइसक्छ । होलसेलमा भन्दा समय पहिलेजस्तो हुँदैन । र ब्याकग्राउण्डलाई अलि फोकस गरेर हेर्दा यस्तो स्थिति आउनुमा अभिभावकको भूमिका के हुन्छ त्यो भनेर अनि लेखेर शब्द किन खर्चिनु ? जगजाहेर छ, सबैचिजमा कम्प्रमाइज भए नि आफ्ना सन्तानका कुरामा बलबुताँले भ्याएसम्म, नभ्याए अन्य माध्यमबाट पनि सन्तानका सपनालाई यथार्थको धरातल मिलाउन आकास जमिन एक पार्छन नै अभिभावकले ।

यत्रो स्टोरी बुनेको अलिकति क्रेडिट पाम भन्ने लोभले पनि हो है । छोरोको एघारौं जन्मदिन, अवसर नै सही केही लेख्न सुरिएको । Read more

आज सगरमाथा दिवस । सगरमाथा चढ्ने, फेदमा पुग्ने मात्र हैन, हेरेर दङ्ग पर्नेका लागि पनि ठूलो चाड । सगरमाथाका कुरा चुलिरहँदा आजै भेट्ने मौका जुर्यो पुष्कर शाहसँग । उनको परिचय साइकल यात्री जसले १५० देश आफ्नो साइकलमा पार गरे मात्रै भन्दा पनि अपूरै होला । सगरमाथा पनि चढे । तेसैले पनि आजका दिन उनका कुरा बुन्दा सान्दर्भिक नै होला भन्ने ठम्याइका साथ लेख्दैछु ।अलि अगाडि अष्ट्रेलियामा भाँडा माझ्दैछु भन्दै टिभी कार्यक्रममा भक्कानिएका थिए । यो कुरोले केही दिन बजार ततायो । उनी फर्के देश, आफ्नै अभियानमा लागे । अनि अहिले फेरि साइकलमा विश्व भ्रमण गर्ने निर्णयमा पुगे । उनको अष्ट्रेलिया बसाइमा आर्थिकोपार्जनका लागि गरेको मिहेनतलाई देखेर टिप्पणी गर्ने जानकारहरु सेलाएका पनि थिएनन् होला शाहलाई भने अर्को सगरमाथाले तानिसकेछ । उनको आफ्नै सगरमाथा, साइकलको संसार । Read more

How is weather in #Nepal? Can we move around??

For reaching fair venue in #Vienna #Austria we deep our feet in snow. With snow reaching tip of nose we cruise to our destination. And to our surprise people coming on the fair ask about weather. The primary concern is about their mobility in Nepal. Will they be able to bear the cold? When Vienna is 2 on degree Celsius we are having sun on 17. Things are not much different. We are country with highest peak and they think all over temperature freezing.

गेट वेल सुन ट्रम्प दाजु

जमाना नै झगडाको छ, रियालिटी शोका टिआरपी यस्तै झगडाले बढेको छ । एकअर्कालाई गालीगलौज गर्दा हेर्ने मान्छेलाई फिल्मी सिन झैं घतलाग्दो हुनेरहेछ तेही भएर अहिले रिस, झगडा, बिकाउ छ । उबेला माया पिरेम बाँडम् भनिन्थ्यो यस्तै कुरो देखाइन्थ्यो अहिले तेस्तो ट्याम रहेन, धुमधढाका, झापड, मुरम¥याइ मसला बनेको छ । र यस्तै संसार जो हामी बाँची रहेका छौं तेसको असली पहरेदारका रुपमा ट्रम्प दाजु खडा छन् ।

ट्वीटर उनका गाली अनि घृणाले अझ बढी चलायमान छ् । कसैले त उनलाई ट्वीटरबाट हटाउन ट्वीटर नै किन्नपर्ने भन्दै चन्दा संकलन सुरु गरिपनिसके । उनकै नियमित गालीको सिरिजमा यसपालि हाम्रै नम्बर आएको छ । उनले नर्कको प्वालजस्तो देश नेपालबाट अमेरिकामा किन मान्छे आउँछन् भनेछन् । दक्षिण छिमेकीबाट सानो छुसुक्क केही आएको भए यसले सबैलाई कोटा पुरयाउँथ्यो । विशेषत आन्दोलनकर्ता, टायर बेच्ने, समाचारवालालाई अनि अन्ध राष्ट्रवादको गीत बजाएर जनताको आँखामा छारो हाल्नेलाई ।
