In Support of Prashant Tamang
It is a known fact that Prasant Tamang, having reached the Top Three at the ongoing Indian Idol has been receiving tremendous support especially from his home district of Darjeeling, The Doars and other places in India where the Nepali population is largely concentrated; not to mention Nepalis living in the Middle East, UK and Singapore from where voting through SMS is possible. Had this been applicable to Nepal as well, we are pretty much sure that Prasant would be garnering more votes than he currently is. For some of us here in Nepal, he is already the Indian Idol; so much is his 'craze' that life comes to a standstill when he is on the tube on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
Because the privilege of sending votes from Nepal have been denied, some are resorting to sending money so that friends and relatives in India can send SMS on their behalf in support of Prasant to win the title; Babu Bogati and hair stylist Neel David having gone all the way to Darjeeling to generate funds for the same purpose. One such person who has undertaken the daunting task of collecting some funds here in Kathmandu is a gentleman named Bikram Golay (Chairman, Surena English Boarding School, Dhalku) along with some friends namely Subash Chettri, Vivek Thapa, GP Dhungel (President, Civil Forum Nepal) and singer Roj Moktan. They intend to collect as much as possible within the next couple of days and make arrangements so that more SMS are sent in time for the next round of Indian Idol. So here's an opportunity for you to extend whatever support you can to Prasant Tamang. Please feel free to call the following if you wish to send in your votes too.
