<<The only reason that Shahuji’s son would beat Munna was because he was poor, and wasn’t originally from Kathmandu. I had seen many episodes like that growing up, kids in neighborhood throwing stones at ‘Madhesi’ fruit vendors, calling them names and even manhandling them at times without any reason. And now, seeing those kids migrate to America and suddenly advocating for the rights of minorities, still with enough vile towards anyone that belonged to Indian origin makes me ask myself if there certainly was something wrong in our middle class Kantipuri upbringing in Nepal decades ago.>>

Truely , Beehove ji , a beautiful memoir/story . Heart touching .

Thank you !!
