Most of us, Nepalis, love Prashant as our own brother/son whether he is technically a Nepali or not. We support him, we vote for him, we raise money for him in our own capacity, for our own fulfillment. If anyone has problems, go do some better work for Nepal or hit your head on the wall till you die. What the heck?

btw stupendous's comments caught my attention. I don't disagree with all the points he has put forth. But there are some genuine factual flaws.

'It's sheer greatness on India's part that it is not biased towards any community'
Oh really? Tell this to the Dalits, the Nagas, the 1970s Punjabis, the Biharis, the Kashmiris, the Muslims living in Gujrat and the hundreds of sub-classes and communities in India. Biases,classism, castism, racism, sexism is more rampant in India than anywhere else in the world.Of course the central government has tried to improve the situation, but it is decades if not centuries away from achieving that sheer greatness you eulogized.The biases that we see in Nepal is partly infact the spill over from India. The sole reason that Nepalis are united for Prashant is the bad treatment Nepal and Nepalis have been getting from and in India. I don't say it is a proper remedy but it does content the human emotions within us.

Nepalis have their own deficiencies but India has played directly and more indirectly to negate the course of our political and economic progress. Had their not been too much Indian interference, we would have been a stable and prosperous nation by now.

'Prashant has no connection with Nepal and vice versa...For them, YOU DON'T EVEN EXIST'.'
You are blatantly naive. Read this piece from an article by Harka Gurung.

'...the future of Nepali society can be
conjectured by looking east, at the social dynamism of the
Nepali-speakers across the Mechi. While the pandits under the
Muluki Ain regime in Nepal busied themselves with rituals and
sycophancy, the Nepali-speaking population across the Mechi
river showed the path to genuine Nepali nationalism:
Darjeeling’s Gyawali and Kalimpong’s Chemjong in history,
Darjeeling’s Koirala and Kalimpong’s Pradhan in language,
Kalimpong’s Gurung and Subba in politics, and so on.'

'Darjeeling was NEVER part of Nepal'

Yes it was, to be factually correct. The territories extended to the Tista river which flows through Darjeeling. This fact has nothing to do with the political boundry of modern Nepal but this does rectify your misconception about history.
