Last Night I Saw a Dream

Last night, as I closed my eyes and drifted off into the realm of dreams, I found myself transported to the bustling streets of Kathmandu. The sun was shining bright and the air was filled with the buzz of people going about their day. I walked with purpose, my feet guiding me toward the Tri-Chandra campus, the place where I spend most of my days.

As I approached the campus, I noticed a young man standing at the zebra crossing. He was dressed in a brown t-shirt and black pants and had two rings on his ears. He turned to me and in a thick American accent, he asked me for directions to the Tri-Chandra campus. I was taken aback, I couldn't believe my ears. A tourist, all the way from America, looking for the Tri-Chandra campus? I told him that I was a student there and I'd be more than happy to show him the way. As we walked towards the campus, he asked me many questions about the school and the country. I told him about our rapidly developing country and how our education system is considered one of the best in the world. He was fascinated and impressed by what he heard. He introduced himself as Zeery Jack and told me that he had come all the way from America to study for his Bachelor's degree at our college. The pride and excitement I felt as I showed him around the campus and introduced him to my country were indescribable. I felt honored to be a student at such a prestigious institution and thrilled to have made a new friend from America. But as I walked back home, I realized that this dream was not just about my personal pride and excitement, but it was a reflection of the growing reputation of my country on the world stage.

This dream was a testament to the hard work and dedication of my fellow countrymen, and the recognition they were receiving on the global stage. It was a reminder that we, as a nation, are capable of achieving great things. And I felt privileged to be a part of this growing legacy, and couldn't wait to see where it would take me and my country in the future.

पर बाट देशलाई हेर्दा।

परदेश बाट देशलाई हेर्दा। हाम्रो आफ्नै भुगोल छ। भाषा छ। आफ्नै धर्म छ। देवता छ्न आफ्नै। नभएको त बुझाइ मात्र हो। आफ्नै इतिहास छ। भित्तामा आफ्नै पात्रो छ। गति आफ्नै छ। नभएको त गति तिब्र मात्र हो। सन्सार हेर्नलाई सगरमाथा छ। फेर्नको लागि सफा हावा छ। अन्नको लागि तराइको फाट छ। भिमकाय पहाड छ्न, खानी छ, मुलको पानी छ  नहुनु पर्ने चाँइ हैरानी मात्र हो। आफ्नै गित छ्न संगीत छ्न। गायक छ्न गायिका छ्न। चलचित्र पनि आफ्नै छ्न। हिरो छ्न, हिरोईन छ्न। खड्किन थालेको चाइ आफ्नै कथा हो। हामी सग के छैन? हामीसग हिड्नलाई बाटो छ। पुरानो सभ्यताको पाटो छ। आफैले आर्जेको देशको माटो छ। नहुन पर्ने चाइ जात-धर्मको नाउँमा फाटो हो। हेर्ने हो भने हामी सग पहिला नै धेरै कुरा छ्न। बिधुतको लागि खोला-नदि छ्न। पर्यटनको लागि सुन्दर  प्रकृति छ। सन्तुलित हावा पानी छ। न बनाय हुने भनेको दुत्सित मात्र हो। बिद्यालय छ्न। बिश्वबिद्धालय छ्न। बिध्या पिठ छ्न। बिद्यार्थी छ्न( अहिले सम्म) खड्किएको भनेको देशलाइ चाहिने पाठ्यक्रम र पठन पाठन हो। सानो भूगोल भैकन पनि हाम्रो देश सग धेरै कुरा छ। हिमाल छ।  हिमालमा हिउँ छ( अहिले सम्म) सबै हिमाल विशाल छ्न।

मेरो साधारण बुझाइ, यो दौड हो कि भागदौड ?

मेरो साधारण बुझाइ,  यो दौड हो कि भागदौड ? जिजुबुवाहरु कतै जानुभएन। धेरै हिड्नु पर्ने बाटो अप्ठ्यारो भएर हो कि वा आफ्नै माटोमा सबै थोक देखेर हो, गाउँ घर तिरै रमाउनु भयो। हजुरबा पुस्ता अलि पर  भारत बर्मा सम्म पुग्नु भयो। केही पढ्नुभयो  केही नयाँ कुरा सिकेर आउनुभयो। तर उतै हराउनु भएन। गाउँ फर्किएर गाउँ मै अर्थोपार्जन र बिधालयहरु स्थापना गर्नु भयो। बाउहरुको लागि सपना देख्नु भयो। खेतवारि जोडि घर धनसार बनाउनु भयो।बुवा पुस्ताले बिधालयमा केही पद्न पाउनु र नया कुरा सिक्न पाउनु भयो। यो पुस्ताले हजुरबाहरुको सपना बुझेन्न वा आफ्नै सपना पूरा गर्न भौतारियो, कोहि बिदेश गए कोहि शहर पशे। बिदेश जाने थोरै थिए धेरै फर्किए, पछि आफनै थाक थलोमा। शहर पस्नेहरु शहर मै हराए। नातिहरु जन्मिने क्रम जारि नै रह्यो। नाति हरु ठुला हुन्दा सम्म धेरै ठाउँ बाटो ले जोडियो। सन्चार माध्यमले धेरै मान्छेहरुसग जोडिए। नयाँ कुरा धेरै थाहाँ पाए। सपना र चाहाना पनि तेहि अनुसार परिवर्तन भयो।  देशले मात्र उनिहरुका चाहाना पुर्याउन सकेन भनुम।धेरै लागे बिदेश। अहिले सम्म लागिरहेछ्न । अब पनाति हरु उतै जन्मिने भए, उनिहरुको सपना यो धर्तीले थेग

Chungthang Hydro-Dam Breach: Lessons for Nepal's Big Hydropower Ambitions

Chungthang Hydro-Dam Breach: Lessons for Nepal's Big Hydropower Ambitions Introduction: A catastrophic glacial lake outburst triggered flash floods in North Sikkim's Mangan district on October 4, 2023, leading to the breach of Sikkim's Chungthang dam, the largest hydropower project in the state. This incident has sent shockwaves through the region, emphasizing the need for Nepal to carefully assess the risks associated with large hydropower dam projects. To make informed decisions, Nepal must draw lessons from past dam failures and natural disasters, understanding the implications of such events on a national scale. The Chungthang Hydro-Dam Disaster: The Chungthang dam, a vital component of the 1200 MW Teesta Stage III Hydro Electric Project, is a symbol of power generation in the region.
