First of all Congratulations to a wonderful, sweet person whom I had the pleasure of meeting very briefly!! Now..the fact that she got married with her father's money and what you all claim to be is ill-earned. I have always wondered how everybody else gets married in Kathmandu in such pompous ways! Apparently the newars have this chalan of saipatta (excuse my mis-spelt english and roman english) where dignity lies in how many plates are exchanged between the grooms family and the bride's. How can anybody afford that? How can anybody afford the countless tolas of gold, the cars, the dahej (oops I don't think its called that!) blah blah blah. Aren't you people a little bit ashamed of pointing fingers here, call up your families and ask how they do it..or how they are planning to feed 1000 people AND keep everybody satisfied - that is YOU included - malai yetti suun ley pugdaina...mero bihey yaha garna parcha...tyaha garna parcha etc etc etc! I don't think its easy for any parent to get their children married off - sano lai sano kai peer, thulo lai thulo ko peer. So he immobilized a percentage of the army - hve you thought of the countless threats he may have received in the past - I would immobilize the whole country if the life of my children was in danger! I don't know the father, what do I care....but people, aren't you being totally irrational and green? Afno dhaad ma hatti dekhdaina...arka ko dhaad ma jumra dekhney haru.
