you got me wrong brother, gurkhas are not trying to enforce the national pride in them to be bestowed by whole of nepal. they just dont want them to be lebelled as or called upon by different names n abuses by own country folks. i was reasoning within national level since many asked the question of thier contrbution to nation other than fighting for imperials. gurkhas as a fighting units hav already recieved huge respect n recognition from international communitites. april 5 is gurkha rememberance day which will be observed globally. theier profession is to fight a battle like sherpas is to climb mountains but the name they carry is always of nepal n nepali. when argies lost falkland to british, argie gov were pist off at nepalese gov for providing brits with gurkhas.
