The so-called war with pahades in terai is baseless. Some dis-satisfied madhesi neta's are just trying to fulfill their selfish needs.

Madhesi people say they do not want the pahades in terai, but in reality things are not going their way. Yes they have displaced pahades from terai, i agree, but look at which class of pahades removed from terai. People of pahades origin who sell tea, chiura tarkari near highway for their living, who are poor, who have nothing with them, they are displaced so who is suffering from terai andolan, poor pahades. Rich pahades who have 1000 of bighas of land in terai, who has been opressing madhesi people for many years, they are living healthy and happy life in terai. This terai andolan has done nothing to them.

Everyone has to fight for their right, it is true but there should be a way to do it, you will not get your right by setting fire in a poor Thapa's chiyako pasal in Thapa chwok of janakpur. This thapa has been living in terai for his whole life, he does not have nowhere to go once madeshi destroy his business, he has nothing to feed his family.

The rich pahades are still opressing the madeshi and they will do so even if one of the madeshi neta's will be prime minister of Nepal. Who says madeshi people are opressed, look at the technical brain that Nepal has today, many people of terai origin are doctors, engineers, overseer and they have occupied key posts in all the mantralayas.

In fact if you count in % of poor people of Nepal with their cast and ethinic background, i bet bahuns and chhetris are poor in number than of any other cast. If you go to beekat pahad and even in terai there are lot of poor bahun and chhetris.

Yes, it is true, if you are not vocal now you will get your right " pachhi ta sabaile birsanchhan haina ta." But there should be a way to do it send your people in ministry tell them to change the policy of the government against terai.

Your fight should not be against pahade your fight should be against the people who have made policy's to opress you and the rich people who has been opressing you for decades. All will support you if you do this.

yo mero bichar matrai ho kasaiko personal bicharma theesh pugema maf paau. I am also a pahade from terai, born and raised in terai.
