Well that is Bikram Sambat, started by some king of ancient north India. What I am talking about is Nepal Sambat, started by a common Nepali citizen. It was in use in KTM valley until Ranas came. We should change our new year to this and stop celebrating new year of Bikram Sambat. There is much discussion about this in mainstream Nepalese media and civil societeis. I started this thread to have some discussion here in Sajha too.
