This is so stupid. History of current modern Nepali border is less than 300 years. The birthplace of Buddha falls in Nepal because Prithvi Narayan Shah conquered the area 300 years ago. And same UML/YCL youths who are hell bent against Prithvi Narayan Shah, are in the forefront of this issue.


I do not know why we waste so much time arguing about where Buddha was born. If we are so proud of Buddha, why don't we follow Buddha's religion. Saying Buddha is an incarnation of Bishnu does not fly.


There are so many more pressing matters in Nepal including 16 hour loadshedding, no water, no one picking up the trash, poverty, insecurity, pollution, illiteracy, and 100's of other issues but we are concerned about this little issue. How shallow have we become? We can live on top of garbage without electricity and water but we cannot stand someone saying anything about Buddha.
