Song pressured to take down from Youtube in Nepal




With the controversial satirical song “Lutna Sake Lut” against corruption and misappropriation, singer Pashupati Sharma has been pressured by the ruling top political leaders and the youth wing of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) to take down the video from his official channel. And as a result of the intimidation the singer has taken down the song from his official channel.

The singer had released the song on Saturday where the song trended the social networking site with high numbers.

Though there has been a silent reaction from the government but indirectly the political leaders pressured the singer to take down the song.

The song talks about the current corruption and the  misappropriation that is going on in the country in the name of politics. From the president to the prime minister to the ruling party the singer has blamed the corruption and misappropriation to be part of the system.

This practice from the ruling party shows the limitation and attitude of Community party towards the people's right and Freedom of expression. We live in democracy and our constitution ensures democracy. Every word that he has said is true and what kind of system is this where people do not have the right to speak the truth....

In democracy every person has the right to speak, may be the singer went to far by using the flags and other details but why are the political party and their representative threatening him. Are these the same people who call themselves leaders, who cannot hear few words of criticism and they say they represent the people.

Democracy ensure freedom of expression and freedom of speech as a  fundamental right. If the political party or leaders have a problem, they should have filed a case.

What kind of culture is this that political leaders and their cadets think they can intimidate and threaten people.

Sad sad sad the people in government need to understand this that in democracy people can stand against them and their decisions.
During this regime there has been a rise of corruption and misappropriation which is open to all and if people are citing it with their creativity and talent then let me tell you such people should not be called leaders. They are cowards ......


STOP threatening and intimidating ............................

Tootle and Pathao legality questioned





Tootle and Pathao, both the services have been very effective in terms of providing services and cheaper transportation to the locals. Looking at it from consumer point of view, it is certainly a great form of innovation and technology ending the syndicate of  taxi system that ruled the public transportation system. I am not hesitant to say this that a new system has come up with a better option but my question is if a service that is good has been defined illegal by law what should be corrective action.
  1. Keep it running for year till the time something bad happens 
  2. Work on the policy and governance 
  3. Give benefit of doubt when its leaders are moving around promoting their agendas of highlighting  youth empowerment which is yet a business model 

Few days back the arrest of the riders  of Pathao has created a ripple about the legality of such service. The companies have been justifying their operation in the name of providing service and employment to the youth.

Tootle is a company lead by a group of businessman and Pathao is a franchise both of these company aspire to be a leader in public transportation as GOZEK and GOGRAB.
  1. The question that arises here is in a developing country like our's where there is lack of visibility of governance such services needs a broad spectrum of policies and regulation. 
  2. These service have been operational here for more than 2 years. In the name of innovation how long should they be given a benefit of doubt.
  3.  In the age of technology and innovation if legality is not clearly will it be able to do justice to its service with its illegal status. As there are more issues of privacy and data that can be of concern   
 
According to vehicle and transportation act 2049 article 8 sub section 2 , "It is illegal for any private number plate to transport people by taking money."
It clearly says there is no provision for services like tootle and Pathao to exist in our transportation system.  When the law has no provision how come such services have legal existence ?

Another question is these companies are here to make money they are not a volunteering company. They are here to make money so why aren't they bound to be accountable to the law. If they are then what is their legal status when there is no provision of existence of such service.

I think the current move of Nepal government  has opened a broad way for the amendment and development of proper policy. Defying and denying the government move is a question of  legality.

Why are the nepali people  so offensive about the role and position of government ? why cant we standardize the legal definition

KP Sharma Oli New Shoe Controversy




Nepal being one of the least developed country, it's political leaders find themselves involved in various action that are more subjected to moral and ethic questioning. These issues may not look important from the point of view from an external eye but for internal eye they are very relevant.

While attending the World Economic Leaders meeting, the KP Sharma Oli has been criticized for wearing a Louis Vuitton Shoe.

Man what the Pumpking he is the prime minister of Nepal, what is he suppose to wear a GoldStar shoe. Who knows, he might have got that shoes as a gift or he might have bought it in a sale. There are number of possibility that might have occured.

Nepalese are so dam sarcastic, they are not talking about the business class air flight that he might have taken which should be 5 or 6 times more than normal economical flight and they are talking about the shoes that he is wearing. One shoes is affordable for a prime minister. I question the GK of the person who had a question about that. 

Sometime I feel so sad of all these foolish trolls and memes that goes around, one lakh shoes is within his reach people.
