Yes, as a lot of people have heard about the controversy about MISS Nepal USA, we would like to confirm that they are true. As the participants of the event  that we were once looking forward to and excited to be a part of has definitely disrespected us. Let me not get into the details of what happened, there are many blogs that highlights the injustice. (Also, you can tune into radio Yuva tonight 7pm-10pm EST, to hear from us personally). Even after the event failed miserably, the organizers had the guts to state that this year was unfair as they were in rush, but we should come next year and participate. WOW! How disrespectful of our time, money and efforts the statement was. Also, after all of this, they advertised the event as a success, as if the participants and the present audience were blind, deaf and dumb.

People might think that these are voices of the contestants that didn’t win and thus are sharing their dissatisfaction. Let us assure you that this is not correct. We live in a real and practical world... we all know there will be only one winner and we would have applauded the winner loud and proud if a fair and complete platform was provided. Thus, this is not a protest against the title holders but, we are fighting against the fraudulent platform that was provided as nothing was ever transparent. People present in the audience and also by watching the video circulating online can attest to this. Our sponsor’s money went in for waste and we demand to get our money back so that we can use or donate it in a better platform in Nepal. Also we demand to have a public apology for not conducting the event the way it was supposed to and make them responsible for being immensely careless and disorganized.

As for personal relationship, we love each and every one of you. You guys have already made a special place in our hearts. But this is not “Me” or “us” talking to “you” or “them”. This is a voice of the contestants against the organizers which is strictly professional, so please do not mix emotions with work. We girls were asked to provide $28,000 to participate in a platform that was supposed to empower women which failed miserably and even made us feel disgusted with the corrupted mentality of the organizers. On top of that, the organizers got sponsors and made money through audience tickets. When so much money is in stake, how can you be so careless? Additionally, this is not your first time you are conducting such events? Failing twice in a row? And no public apology for our time and efforts being wasted? How can you be so money minded and shameless? As people say, corruption does start at grassroots level when it comes to Nepali and this experience definitely served us a dose of it.

Also, let us remind the organizers, the event that you held was in America. Here, if the product does not meet the consumer expectation, you get refund and If an employee doesn’t meet the work expectation you get fired. MISS Nepal USA needs to refund our money back or get fired. Also, If people would want to still participate in this platform next year it is their problem,not ours,but for now not having met what was promised to us, we are giving them a straight and easy solution.

Finally, for people who asked us why we didn’t voice our opinion right after the event, let us inform you that we did….but the only difference is it’s only NOW that we have been heard. Jay Nepal!
