This post focuses on how the Election Commission of Nepal has not only compromised the personal details of MILLIONS of citizens in the run up to the 2022 elections but continues to do so even now in the run up to the 2026 elections.

If you value time and human life, then you would respect the time of another human being.

"Nepali Time," a famous local concept, to those who value time and life, is a sign of disrespect. That is: disrespecting a person's time is disrespecting them, and a persistent pattern suggests you don't sufficiently value their life.

In order for Nepal to make progress, the country must mass educate the population so that they learn to value time considerably more and therefore the lives of others.

FIJA appears to be a toothless non-profit organization registered in the US. It also appears to be of, for, and by the hill so-called high caste Hindus of Nepal.

Ironically, Dahal is also a staunch monarchist. The 250-year history of the Khas-arya monarchy in Nepal was characterized by the regime stifling rights and curtailing many freedoms, including freedom of press!

Consequently, you live and view life in ways that you didn't in the past and in ways others around you don't. Initially, you may not even be aware of it. Coming to terms with and reconciling this change takes deliberate steps and actions.

I made it through a period of years of emotional and intellectual turmoil following a traumatic experience because I recognized and understood a lot of it, and, more crucially, I knew the steps to take.

I share the details in this blog post with the hope that it might help someone else.

Traditional Nepalis' belief that children should be spoken to, not listened to, is highly detrimental. It has promoted a culture--at home, school, and in society--that fails to cater to the emotional needs of children, raising emotionally stunted and immature adults, especially the males who, more likely than not, use verbal, emotional and physical violence to communicate.

Solution is to respect children, abandon, our punitive culture, impart critical thinking skills among others.
