मेरो घर जनकपुर, कदम चौक नजिकै पर्छ I

Human Right Watch ले प्रकासित गरेको रिपोर्ट मैले पढें I पहिलो चोटी मा विश्वास लागेन र २-३ पटक पुनः पढे, सारा प्रमाणहरुको छानबिन गरेर लेखीएको रहेछ, घटनाहरु मेरो कल्पना भन्दा बाहिरको लागे, तर पनि यथार्थलाई मान्नै पर्यो I

जनकपुरको घटनाहरुको ब्याख्याहरु पनि पढे, नेपाल प्रहरीबाट जनकपुरमा पहिलो गोलि कदम चौक मै चलेको रहेछ I म बुझ्न त सक्छु त्यो गोलिको आवाजले मेरा आफन्त र परिवारहरु कति आतंकित भए होलान तर प्रत्यक्ष अनुभव गर्न त पक्कै पनि सकिन I लाखौ विदेशिएका युवाहरु जस्तै, म पनी आफ्नो प्यारो ठाउँ छोडेर अनेत्र जानु परेको छ I त्रशित भएर बसेका मेरा परिवार माझ आफु नहुनुमा धेरै दुख लगेर आएको थियो I मेरो दिमागमा डरलाग्दा कल्पनाहरुले घर बनाउन सुरु गर्यो र त्यसले मेरो मन बेचैन बनाउन थालिसकेको थियोI

This selective outrage should be condemned along with digital hatred towards any community. Let us hope sanity prevails and the online version of communal hatred is controlled by responsible Nepal Police and civic society of Nepal.
