Ensure public health

The Himalayan Times 18 July 2019 Ensure public health Nepal used to be and is known with its abundant water resources, dense natural forests, existence of popular Himalayan ranges and unique traditional farming system. However, not all these saying are still relevant, especially those dense forests and traditional farming system. The forest cover has been gradually shrinking due to the government’s poor governance and human encroachment. Illegal logging is another serious factor for the gradual disappearance of forest areas. Traditional farming practices are almost gone in the country and have been replaced by modern farming system where organic fertilizers have been badly displaced by heavy use of pesticides. Having said this, who is to blame for the situation? Was it the central government and its policies? Was it the people who encroached forest land in close collaboration with political party leaders?

The Himalayan Times 4 July 2019 Failing to deliver The number of political parties in Nepal during the transition phase, following the Second Janandolan, crossed over five dozen.

Shame on the event organizer. आज मिति १७ असार ०७६ मंगलबार को नया पत्रिका मा कृष्ण ज्वाला ज्युको फरक मत मा "प्रधानमंत्रीको फरक सोफा " लेख पद्नु भा छैन भने एक पल्ट एशो कृपा लाउनु होला है, हजुर । साह्रै समय सापेक्ष लेख लेख्नु भा छ । I have tweeted this today after reading the article of Mr. Krishnajwala Devkota. @bbangdel.com https://www.nayapatrikadaily.com/news-details/18581/2019-07-02
