Awadh, Chitwan, Bhojpura, Mithila, Kochila = Madhesh



After the Madhesi Kranti of February 2007, the Maoists punished the Madhesi people for the uprising by breaking up their own proposed Madhesh state into five parts and foisting Pahadi Bahuns to look after each of them in that party's internal structure. That mistake has to be undone. One unified Madhesh state has to be created. Chitwan is part and parcel of the Terai plains. Biratnagar is part and parcel of the future Madhesh state.

Seti, Karnali

Seti-Mahakali, Bheri-Karnali. Why double names? Why not just Seti and Karnali?

The Idea Of A Dalit State

When D B Sagar B.K. spoke at this event in NYC not long back, he suggested the idea of a Dalit state. He said a big chunk of my proposed Khasan state had the Dalits as the largest group. So why not have a Dalit state? I agree. Why not?
