Apples and oranges..culprits are writers and journalists who do not define “Nepali” and create unwanted haze. Objective discussions can demystify many such vague terms and misconceptions. सलेम मिया फ्रोम भर्जिनिया

नेपालमा जन्मिएको नेपालमै हुर्किएको अनि माओबादी को नेता पनि भै खाको - तर देस भने २ सताब्दी पछी धकेल्ने नेपालि भन्दा बर्मा जन्मिए को होस् वा पुर्ब ( बिगतको) नेपाल दर्जलिंग मा जन्मिएको होस् तर नेपाल र नेपाल भूमिको मन सम्मान र भुमि रक्षार्थ पछी पर्दैन तो सच्चा नेपाल प्रेमी हो , मात्र नागरिकताले नेपाली चिनाउनु  हाम्रा धार्मिक नेताले जन्म ले मात्रै हिन्दु हुन्छ भन्ने छुद्र मस्तिस्क का उपजको उजगार मात्रै हो | यो कुरा पढदा मेरो काठमान्दु  सहर र त्यो सहरमा बस्ने सहरिया अरु पाखे ( चाहिदैन ) अनि त्यो मात्रै नेपाल सम्झने संग तुलना गर्न मन लाग्यो,|

The point is to examine things if that are matters of public (Nepali nationals and Nepali speaking Nepal lovers) interest.   The point is to know the actualities to the extent possible. (This thread is not related to any personal matter, nor is against anyone.) Why.. Many believed Maoists were nationalist even when the later were attacking each and every fabric of Nepal. People followed Maoists’ nara but failed to notice why they, the Maoists, were pushing for Madheshban, Tamuban kind of highly unsocial, unscientific agenda. Maoists continued to destruct Nepal even after that, but mostly quietly, under the cover.   Under the sun, Prachanda and Baburam would hold the rallies and make promises. With nightfall, they would distribute over 2 million citizenship certificate to the nationals of India. The result is many of the government and assembly belong to Terai, leading to derailment of political process, with no light in sight.

 Prashant Tamang is not a Nepali for the love of god. Neither is Bhaichunt Bhutiya.

 At least Sushil Chhetri's mom is Nepali. She even played in the Nepali National team. 

riddle · Sep 13, 2012 6:12 PM

good to know his mom is nepali, so he can claim citizenship based on his mother's residency card.
