विश्वकप प्रसारण सुधार गर्न अनुरोधसहितको असन्तुष्टि !
फिफा विश्वकप २०२६ का खेलहरु हेर्न नेपालमा अधिकारिक प्रसारणकर्ताले तोकेकै रकम तिरिएको छ । ठूला प्रतियोगिताको स्तरीय ब्रोडकास्टका लागि सब्स्क्रिप्सन तिर्ने बानी बसाल्नुपर्छ भनेर मैले पनि भनेको थिएँ । तर जुन तरिकाले नेपालमा अहिले विश्वकप प्रत्यक्ष प्रसारण भइरहेको छ, निशुल्क हेर्दा पनि यस्तो समस्या थिएन ।
एक त खेल सुरु हुनुअघि र सकिएपछि हुने गतिविधि केहिपनि हेर्न पाइएको छैन । टेलिभिजनमा आफ्नो कार्यक्रम र विज्ञापन होला, तर ओटीटीले पनि खेलअघि विज्ञापन मात्र बजाएर खेलको कुनै गतिविधि देखाउँदैनन् । खेलपछि स्ट्रिम बन्द गर्न हतारो नै हुन्छ ।
खेल सकिएपछि खेलाडीले के भने र कसरी खुसी मनाए भनेर हेर्न सामाजिक संजालमा खोज्नुपर्छ । फिफाले विश्वभर दिने फिड नेपालमा पनि पक्कै दिन्छ । अझ यसपटक त प्राइम टिभीले सिधै फिफाबाट अधिकार खरिद गरेको छ, त्यसपछि मात्र अरु संस्थासम्म खरिद/विक्री गरिएको हो ।
हुन त विश्वकप अघि हरेक खेलको आफ्नै प्रि/पोस्ट म्याच हुन्छ भन्थे, तर अहिले त्यस्तो छैन । पहिलो खेलअघि चौथो खेलको कुरा हुन्छ, अनि चौथो खेल सकिएपछि पहिलो खेलको चर्चा । खेलको ३० मिनेट अघिसम्म पनि अनुमानित लाइनअपकै चर्चा हुन्छ भने खै के भन्ने । कार्यक्रमको स्तर र कन्टेन्टबारे धेरै नबोलौं होला, यसमा विज्ञापन दिने संस्थाले पनि आफ्नो नाम कहाँ जोडिएको छ भन्ने हेर्लान कि ?
अहिलेको अवस्थामा पैसा तिरेपछि निशुल्क हेर्न पाइने समयभन्दा बढी विज्ञापन हेर्नुपरेको छ । हो, व्यावसायिक रुपमा विज्ञापन र खेलको तालमेल मिल्नुपर्ने हो । तर दर्शकले खेल अघि/पछि पनि हेर्न नपाउने अनि पैसा पनि लिने चाहिं हुँदै भएन ।
प्राविधिक समस्या आउने कुरामा सुरुवाती दिनमा समस्या हुन्छ, केहि सुल्झिएका पनि छन् । तर अब खेल अघि बढ्दै जाँदा आफ्नो सर्भर र सिस्टम थप बलियो बनाउनै पर्छ । यसबाहेक आफ्नै नियन्त्रणमा भएको ब्रोडकास्ट कन्टेन्टलाई विज्ञापन मुखी होइन, खेललाई प्राथमिकतामा राख्नुपर्यो ।
मेरो आफ्नै अनुभव भन्दा, हाम्रो खेलकुदबाट आफैंले स्थानीय र अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय स्तरमा प्रतियोगितामा काम गर्दा विज्ञापन भन्दा खेललाई प्राथमिकतामा राख्यौं । त्यसले आर्थिक रुपमा असर परेपनि दर्शकले सधैं प्रशंसा नै गर्नुभयो । अहिले त दर्शकले सुरुमै पैसा तिरिसकेको अवस्थामा विज्ञापनलाई प्राथमिकता राख्नुको तात्पर्य के हो ?
डिभिजन वन कार्यालय धनगढीका कर्मचारीहरूले सडक छेउमा पानी र चाउचाउ बेचेर आफ्नो परिवारको जीविकोपार्जन गर्दै आएको एक गरिब परिवारले वर्षौंको पसिनाले जोडेको टेम्पो भिरबाट फालिदिएका छन्।
सामान झारेर लैजान्छु भन्दै हात जोडेर बिन्ती गर्दा पनि नसुनी टेम्पोलाई जबरजस्ती धकेलेर भिरबाट खसालिएको हो।
उनको परिवारको मुख्य जीविकोपार्जनको आधार रहेको उक्त टेम्पो भिरबाट खसालिएपछि अहिले उक्त परिवार न्यायको खोजीमा छ्न। #news #sadstory @ShahBalen@NepalPoliceHQ@MoYLE_Nepal@RONBupdates@Sudanhaminepal

Sabitra Bhandari, Captain of Nepali National Football Team posts an update about her injury and details about troublesome period that has led to postponement of her surgery, all due to @theanfaofficial's incompetence.
She writes:
"Hello, I am Sabitra Bhandari, yours 'Samba'
I have been out of action for the past 7 weeks due to injury. If things went as expected, I would have undergone surgery and started physiotherapy. But I am still wandering around for treatment.
I have sustained serious injury to both MCL and the graft of ACL that was previously surgically inserted into my knee. For this, I am in a situation where I need to undergo a complicated surgery again. Last time, ANFA leadership provided complete management and support for my treatment. At that time, I had no problems financially or mentally, so I was able to return to the field on time.
But this time, the ANFA leadership promised me support at the start but did not commit to their promise. Although the surgery date was set at the club's initiative for 3 weeks after the injury, ANFA said that it would try its best. We had to withdraw that date and wait for ANFA. However, ANFA did not proceed with the process as expected. Despite my repeated attempts, it was difficult to contact them. Last week, ANFA President himself informed that ANFA would not be able to provide administrative support for my treatment. He said that he would provide cash assistance of up to 500,000 and to carry out other procedures on my own. Firstly, the procedure I had previously started was stopped, and on the other hand, I have to try again for the surgery date after about 2 months.
In the meantime, the club is telling me that they are ready to treat me at a local hospital in New Zealand. But since my injury is serious and the treatment I received at the Aspetar in Qatar was of a excellent standard last time, I want to get treated at the same hospital again. The club will release the amount received from the insurance for me. But since the amount will not be enough for my surgery and 7-8 months of rehabilitation, I have come to ask for help from the supporters. The initial estimated cost for the surgery and rehabilitation will be 80 thousand US dollars.
Since I am abroad, efforts have been made on my behalf to the government too. But since the government process has not progressed as expected, I am not in a position to wait for them without proceeding for surgery.
I have always faced difficulties in my career, and I have overcome them with courage every time. This time, I need your help to rise again.
This has been the hardest fight of my career for me. I never thought this would happen. Even after ANFA, whom I considered my guardian, backed down, I feel the supporters will help me. I was disappointed to hear the argument within ANFA that I got injured while playing for the club. But I have always given 100 percent for the country and I am ready to play for the country in the coming days. Whether it is Israel or France, I have always felt that I have carried the name of Nepal. Even when I played here in New Zealand and Australia, I feel that I carry the identity of the nation more than my own.
Financially, even the amount that I have not earned so far is not enough for this treatment. That is why I am asking for help from you all today. I hope that the necessary support for my treatment will be collected soon. And if I, the captain of the national team, who has reached Europe and played, have to face this situation, think about what will happen to others? I have been constantly raising my voice about this, but fate has once again brought me to this situation.
To help me, those living in Nepal can donate through the QR code below or through the bank.

This injury has exhausted me physically and mentally, but I believe I will return.
Tired, not defeated
I will return and weari Nepal's jersey once again.
Jai Nepal!"
WIN at last!
Took us 12 years to get the second win but it was not easy.
Hopefully we can make this a habit in coming years.
Dipendra and Sompal were brillitant today. A lesson for the others to understand what this stage needs.
Everyone in the system has got to know the shortcomings.
and for thousands that flocked the Wankhede, this is what the country deserves.
If any of you have been feeling unusually low, anxious, or emotionally heavy since yesterday just know the energy around today feels intense. Be gentle with yourself. Sit with your emotions, journal your thoughts, meditate, and allow yourself to feel . This phase will pass. 🤍
We got similar attentions from Every Cricketing Legends in last World Cup. And we get Canada and UAE for our warm ups. Hope the support continues through out in coming years. We just need more and more Practice Matches with Test Playing nations to enhance & expertise our talent.

Such a heartbreaking scene here at @theanfaofficial premises this. After ANFA’s decision to postpone the A Division League for further 13 months (currently on 879 days since last held), the players reached ANFA demanding resumption of league. They were not allowed to enter the Complex as they locked the gate. The players staged protest on the street. They ended the program by handing over the medals they won in their playing career at the gate.
Tough to see players having to come to streets for basic rights. Hopefully @FIFAcom@theafcdotcom@FIFPRO see this.
