Hey guys,
AFP is one of the leading news agency in the world after CNN and BBC. It broadcasted the news about recent incidents of Nepal in its paper and television and mentioned " Nepal is a former British Colony".
Being such a large news agency, it is there negligence to mention Nepal as former British colony which we never were. By the way it is a French news agency. You can read that news in this link.

It says, "Britain, Nepal's former colonial ruler, sent its congratulations after the assembly's first session". Isn't this disgusting????
I have already mailed AFP and demanded an apolozy from them as well threaten them a law suit.
I request you all to send your concern about this false news to the AFP which is not only misleading but is also a shame to our country. Just click the folowing link.
