I guess many people just hate them because it's natural to hate bigger State by the general public of the smaller state. however, it's not the dhotis we hate we just hate the dhoti policies, which translates into hate in general. I think everybody know Nepal needs friendly relation with India, most of the hypocrites still watch Hindi Movies, they love to talk to Indians in Hindi. We generally share the same culture. By the way, even Indians itself don't like each other forget about others. The hard facts: India is a home to highest number of Nepali immigrants. India is responsible for majority of Infrasturctures in Nepal. Indian Aid covers most of our national budget. India influences Political, Economical, entertainment sectors. India is consistantly on the prowl of landgrab. India uses our men at war and abuses our women in bed. Now, we can't live with or without India. So far we just feel unfortunate to be alongside India. Military invasion is not practical in these days to colonize the country these day, it's too expensive and risky. It's rather safe if you destablize the country, make them weak, make them run to you for help, then you hold the bargaining chip. You obligate that country to influence their policy. Then if you influence their policy in a effective way, you colonize that country. That's what happening in Nepal right now. India played a big part to destablize our country ever since Chandra Shekhar came to Nepal in early 90's. I guess its time for new revolution against opression from the South of the border.
