Please, Do not extend the meaning of my text out of context but I wish to say something here when we are in very difficult situation and are striving to make a 'New Nepal'.

Today, I was reading a biography of a famous Indian lawyer called 'Nani Palkhiwala'. Around, 1970, while arguing before a Supreme Court of India, he made a very important comment regarding division in Indian Society.
He said, In India, we are millions of Bengalis, millions of Tamil, and millions of Marathis, but, unfortunately very few Indians.

I think in Nepal also, today, we are a lot of Bahuns, Newars and Madhise/Madhesi but few Nepalis. My dear Sajhaites, I think we should refrain from making such comments like Newarland and Limbuland at this stage. As we are already divided so much, further division will disintrigate us to non-entity and we lose that common binding thread-Nepali.

Let's hope that Constituent Assembly Election will take care of all our demands. Let's hope that our representatives in coming parliament will utilize their best wisdom to give rights to all-to all Himali People, to all Pahadi and of course, to all Teraibasi irrespective of their caste and culture.

I hope that we feel shame, now onwards, to host these kinds of topics in Sajha
We need to work for common unity among Nepalese Brothers and sisters at this defining moment of Nepalese History.
