Today I went through several groups in facebook because I was thinking which are the most popular groups among Nepali? And to my surprise most of them were anti Indian like Gautam Buddha was born in Nepal not in India, Extortions of our land by India lets fight for it and many more similar groups. There are tens of group formed on the same spirit where thousands of Nepali are member. The comments posted on these groups’s wall were full of gall words against India. That was something serious to think about. Using all these violent and rough words against our neighbor and illustrating her as prime mover of our problem will do no good to us. Blaming other for our awful condition has become something like custom to we Nepali. As people say “looser always ask for excuses” and this is no more than an excuse.

It is the trend of the world that strong will always shake off the weak one. Let’s pay attention to our history where we were once like the Great Himalayan Empire. From Tista River in the east to the Kangada Fort in the west was our boundary which was almost double to that of the present. We were the one who fought gallantly against British Empire and save our land. India was ruled by outlander for almost two century but we initiated the alliance against British in Asia under our provident leadership. Once upon a time our enemy used to break out in a sweat hearing our name. During our unification campaign many small Indian state were wiped off the map and I am sure that at that time those people also used to think the same as we do now. We occupied them because we were strong and maybe India is trying the same as they think they are strong now.

See we were the top dog. We did everything to annihilate them and we felt we did well. So we have to be strong and no one can do anything to us. We were great and we can be. Scolding others won’t save us nor will we be able to defeat them. But this doesn’t mean that we have to protect our homeland like our ancestor did, fighting and conquering others. The world is changed and so does the frontier of the war. Today strong are not those who have millions of army and ammunitions but strong are those who have strong economy, strong market, advance technology and moral citizen. I think we have the resources to achieve this. We can build our country to be the one like India if we do this then there is no need to use those greedy words. Be a decent neighbor and you’ll get respect. And be a noble citizen and we can be the Great again.
