हे हे, चिन्तनसित काम गरेको भन्छ, उसको academic background के हो थाहा त छ ? उसको चिप्लो गफैमा भुलेर दङ्ग पर्या भए कुरै बेग्लै । ashu, I can aggree to some degree with you on what properties made Gopal Chintan like that but my conclusion is not same to yours. I have debated with him in conferences and meetings, and got known how hollow knowledge does he have in the subject matters he is involved in, I couldn't believe myself how easily he could agree with my opinions that contradicted to his ones. He is a good debaters, agreed, but not intellecutually sharp. He surrenders very easily once he has to speak at intellectual level, but he is smart to patch up his weakness and police his opinions using some cunning arguments. He is very good in raising questions and luring media but not in proposing solutions. I am sure, it would be much good to our country if people had paid attention to others, who are not good debaters but more intellectual than him; who knows weakness and limitation both as well. e.g. rahulvai If you think he is earning enemy in Nepal by doing good work, then my friend you are in huge mistake. in fact his business is to ruin the work not doing the work, he has built up excellent carreer track record in collapsing projects. He is not smart but 'over-smart' opponent who leads everybody down the path of ruin. भनिहाले नि "कच्चा बैद्यको मात्रा - यमपुरीको यात्रा" । हेर्दै जाऔ, देखि हालिन्छ नि । Nothing personal to him, neither to you, but couldn't just stop laughing after seeing how this kind of people prevail in nepal and how genuine intelectuals are sidelined in the recent past, and again the same cycle is being repeated in Melamchi case right now.
