From Syangja to Sydney, from Fikkal to Finland, the silent majority of Nepalis don't agree with the division of Nepal

@Fantush: When I first read the article of Amrit Gurung, i gave my hats off to him and salute him for trying to bring all the people of Nepal together.

However, if you look at the situation in Nepal wearing the minority cap in rural villages, the truth is transparent and racism is rampant. Why do you think that all the gurungs/magars go to overseas for labor jobs although they are educated? Because they don't get the opportunity like other majority caste like bahun/cheetri/newar. Look at an example of Dharan or pokhara where majority of people are gurungs/rai/limbhu but the government posts are all taken by the brahmin/cheetris/newar etc.  When you see some indian looking person selling bottles, why do you(us) make fun of him as bhaiya although he is madhesi. How discriminated he might have felt when we label him as indians although he was born here? It looks very good when you look on your perspective but you have to think from other perspective as well.

When something goes here in US against minority, you(Us) are the first one to speak against racism although we don't have any rights to speak in US as being immigrants but we try to ignore the rights of fellow minority citizens of our country.

My point here is not to divide the country based on ethnic caste or religion but to integrate us with the equal opporunity law act irrespective of race, religion, gender and age like here in US. Therefore the government should come with the equal opportunity law act instead of dividing the country based on ethnic caste and religion.

Peace
