I believe in equal rights for everyone. Having said that I met one madeshi family from Jefferson MO. I first thought they were Indians because they don't speak Nepali at all. His all family speak hindi, I mean even 3 year old son. All the time when I was there their family was talking in Hindi. Only the adult man is talking with me as well as other people in the gettogether in English. I don't understand why he is so after Indian? If they were talking in Bojpuri or some of their own ethnic language, it would be fine. I was so sad by the fact that they claim nepali but speak hindi themselves as well as teaching hindi to the future generations. Again, I said I would be proud if his family speak their own bojpuri language rather than hindi.
