BC, we are not moving ahead in our discussions. I see we are making circles. May be you don't read my threads or just don't care about the topic, hence, u are coming up with ur hackneyed conclusion "In other words land pani liyera paisaa pani nadiyera yeso gar uso gar ani tyo khayeko land chahii paaach ? THIS IS NOT PROBLEM SOLVING THIS IS HOODWINKING THE NEWARI COMMUNITY. "

To conclude my inputs to the thread I reiterate the positives my suggestions (some of which do resemble nepe's and pat's ideas) :

1. Empower communities by giving more rights to decide for themselves. They decide how to spend the fund. Calls for less oversight and inervening from the government.

2. Gives community more financial flexibility because they decide how to and where to spend the money, as opposed to the government telling them.

3. Better scope of PR propoganda for the government. A good way to propogate "decentralization" of power and authority.  

4. More interaction between the government and the community,hence, bettering the communication and avoiding miscommunication that lead towards coflict. (For details read by previous posting how different levels of authority interact with the community).

5. Raises the community's interest with distinct festivals and fares. By orgaizing melas and special functions to raise money and awarness, they can generate a lot of buzz and publicity to attract wider spectacle. Wider participation will be encouraged.

6. More financial independence as the organizers look to undertake a sizable fund raising campaign. The businesses as well as Government institution who benefit from the cultural surroundings will be asked/encouraged to contribute their share. For example in the mela that they organize, they can invite businesses to set up stalls. In return they can get a "donation" or charge a "fee" for the stall. The government too can channel some VAT or tax levied upon the local business to a fund set up to finance festivals and jatras (This applies mostly to affluent neighborhoods. Poorer communities will have to rely more on government help.).

7. Calls for investigation on illegal Guthi encroachment.

8. Looks to revamp Guthis structurally to make them more independent and  professional. Financial independce and sustainability cannot happen without this point.   

9. Continuous compensation or "rent" paid to the guthis if their land generates any income (as in hospitals or museums).

It is a pro-active and comprehensive plan (for funding issues, guthi issue, and culture/tradition) looking to solve problems in the long run.
