I got somewhere in the thread about the shortage of petroleum back in 80s. To my knowledge it was not only petroleum but also Salt. It happened becoz the then head of state (Birendra) ignored the Indian interest put by the then Prime minister of India (Rajiv Gandhi). (India earned a lot from Koshi Treaty in BP Koirala era.) At that time of shortage The then primeminister of Nepal Marich Man Singh (I still remember the chant Mariche Lai Fansi De) imported the salt and Kerosene from China to distribute throughout the country (which u guys might have heard from news). I know these things. No comments on further issues. Long Live Nepal. A few worthless people can not make me feel disgraced while taking the name of my Motherland. I am a proud Nepali.
