Now there is too much talk about slaughtering the bull. Hindu fundamentalists particularly. What difference if one slaughters a bull or a buffalo save religious sentiments. If you speak for animal rights, it is a matter of concern and contemplation
People talk about compassion and empathy time and again . This is the time they can show it generously contributing something to the surviving victim of the flood. Words do not work actions do. Do something when your help is desperately required.
The disaster is not over since it is a rainy season, landslides are likely to happen, and what is more when torrential rains occur people surviving the disaster have nowhere to go to for shelter. The government must be prudent to think over suck things beforehand.
@brb1954 True, in fact they could manage the morgues since buring them recklessly will sadden the bereaved family. This kind of heartless behavior of the government people is really pathetic.
@DeepakChopra I do not know whether what says is relevant today though it was relevant some while ago. The world is changed and our old values are replaced by the new one.
To be brutally honest, the number of deaths outnumbers many times the number given by the media described by those who have witnessed the scene. The dead bodies are still sinking there and the rescuers are too busy with rescuing the dying .
Today what is happening in Rasuwa is nothing new since we know that Nepal is prone to landslides, flood and earthquakes. Since every year Nepal is going through some kinds of natural disasters and it is unfortunate that we did not prepare ourselves for the unavoidable.
@MartinChautari@anhs_himalaya This is a great topic for discussion and in fact this is a very pertinent subject in the present context of people, since for want of this essential facility so many women in Nepal lose their lives being unable to deliver babies safely in our remote villages.
@MartinChautari It was a wonderful discussion program and Pratyoush Onta, a veteran Nepali historian should be credited with all that made the program a great success
