In last few weeks something has really been stuck in my mind. My mind is always full  about concern of the security of my family back gome. May be all these recent incident happening is pinching me.

About 18 months ago a group threaten to kidnap my young nephew (bhanja), and asked for ransom of NRs 1 Million. The bargain went on for few weeks at the mean time we managed to get some help from police and track those culprits. Finally they were caught. We all were so relieved. But, I am not sure if any other culprit will try that again. Our family always escort him to and from school, and he is almost under house arrest due to his security.

My dad favours monarchy but isnt an activist. I fear if any group like YCL/YF are looking to take on my father. He is in his late 50s and does not have any political affiliations. I have a feeling that just having faith in monrachy could easily put him into trouble from these youth political groups. I am very much afraid of his security.

My mum and grandmom both loves wearing jewellary. Its just their habit, although they have decreased the amount, they still wear significant amount of it. Its hard for us to convince them to not to wear much. I fear if anyone would attack my mum or granny for those. I fear for their secirity.

I have couple of gadget-lover cousins all on their late teens. With the recent Nirmal/puskar incident, I have forced them not to take any gadget even their personal stereos out of home just coz I dont want any such thing to haapen to them. I fear for them.

My sister and bhinaju are well established in their business and well off. They get all the demads of donation from various group at all times. They fear not providing them their demand, just coz they want to be secure.

My family always used to get donation demand from Maoist during insurgency. Their cause for asking donation was just having few of my family members abroad. We all abroad are mere struggling student, who have problem of paying fees and rent every other month. They demanded half a million, and we paid, just coz of our parent need to be safe.

The situation is chaotic. I dont know, if you all guys have the same fear, but in last few weeks, my fear have grown sky high. I wish I could have cammando security to my family 24/7. I have not been able to sleep well few nights. I wish I could be able to get all my family aborad where I do not have to think about their everyday security.

Please share if you guys have similar feeling or any suggestion to keep our family safe.
