The political participation of the Kirat Rai community in Nepal has evolved significantly over time:
Historical Context
Historically, the Kirat Rai people, like many indigenous groups in Nepal, had limited political representation and influence. During the monarchy and the early years of the democratic movement, their participation in national politics was minimal. The centralization of power and the dominance of certain ethnic groups often marginalized the Kirat Rai and other indigenous communities.
Recent Developments
In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the political engagement and representation of the Kirat Rai community:
- Constitutional Recognition: The new constitution of Nepal, adopted in 2015, recognizes the rights of indigenous peoples, including the Kirat Rai. This has provided a legal framework for greater political participation and representation.
- Political Representation: Members of the Kirat Rai community have increasingly been elected to local, provincial, and national government positions. This includes representation in the federal parliament and various provincial assemblies.
- Indigenous Movements: Organizations like the Kirat Rai Yayokkha have been instrumental in advocating for the rights and representation of the Rai people. These movements have played a crucial role in raising awareness and pushing for political inclusion.
- Local Governance: With the implementation of federalism in Nepal, there has been a decentralization of power, allowing for greater local governance. This has enabled the Kirat Rai community to have more influence in local decision-making processes.
Current Challenges
Despite these advancements, challenges remain:
- Underrepresentation: While there has been progress, the Kirat Rai community is still underrepresented in higher levels of government and key decision-making positions.
- Socioeconomic Barriers: Economic and educational disparities continue to hinder full political participation for many in the community.
The journey towards equitable political representation for the Kirat Rai and other indigenous communities in Nepal is ongoing, with continued efforts needed to address these challenges and ensure inclusive governance.

Which declustering methodology for seismic/ earthquake catalogue is suitable for the Bihar -Nepal region (Himalayan foothill region)?
I am using a multi-stage sampling technique for my study in Kathmandu district, Nepal, which consists of 1 metropolitan city and 10 Municipality. I have randomly selected Kathmandu metropolitan city (KMC) (due to budget and logistic constraints). KMC further consists of 32 wards of which I have selected one Ward (No.16) randomly (resource constraints).
My sample size is around 437, calculated using Taro Yamane formula. However, I do not have the list of households in Ward #16. In such a situation, which sampling technique will be appropriate.
If cluster sampling is to be used, how should the clusters be made as the clusters would not be homogeneous?
As Nepal has been practicing federalism in health system with dividing judiciary, executive role among all three levels of governments. In practice, it seems quite challenging. Do anyone have good experience/ publication regarding successful implementation and/ or early notice of failure of such provision?
As Nepal has been reviewing the roles of different government, this might be helpful.
Your study is focussed on small internal grid interconneted to very large external grid. Exact Modelling of that very large external grid connected to your small internal grid is not feasible as the data of that very large external grid is not available or very complex. (Example - small Nepal grid connected to very vast Indian grid).
In order to represent that very large external grid with equivalent grid model what are the methods applicable in DigSilent(aside network reduction method) and how can it be represented with a equivalent grid if you have grid data of Generation, Load and FRC of that external grid.
I want to do a cosmology research project for my physics undergraduate course. What is the availability of the data for such topics for a student staying in Nepal? Please kindly help me with suitable advice, I will acknowledge that.
In Nepal, there is a term called ' Brahmanism' which is considered to be an identity of the community of Brahman. No Brahman has yet accepted the concept of Brahmanism neither claim as an identity.
Thus, it is created outside of the community of Brahman and imposed to them as their identity.
Brahman are also called Khas-Arya and this term is written in the Constitution of Nepal which also seems baseless. Khas and Arya are different entities.
There are ethnic groups in Nepal which are created against the community of Khas-Arya. Khas-Arya community which was never owned and entertained - is constructed at outside of the community in order to validate other ethnic groups.

Nepal is developing country having basic infrastructures with sufficient Natural resources and adequate human resource. As a resourceful nation, Nepal has tremendous possibilities of entrepreneurship to meet national, South Asian moreover India and China , together with global market. Nepal has energetic, academic but jobless youth whereas Nepalese people consume around all product and services by importing. Nepal is just wasting its youth and resources which have charismatic potential of prosperity. Small Scale business takes slow journey which helps society but cannot meet the competition as well as already geared up and globalized opportunity.
Although Nepal is not taking needed initiatives of entrepreneurship. How Nepal can start its entrepreneurial journey?

I am thinking about the future fuel system. and I think hydrogen fuel is best for the future power system. now days all of us interest electric vehicles(EV). EV has one problem that is, the charging system. To charge those batteries all country have to update the power grid. some country update the power system.
but is that all???
we are fully dependent on batteries. all of electric product now control by batteries. now renewable energy also store by batteries. But the batteries have life time. after that recycle the batteries. but It not so easy process. some country doesn't have any recycle system like Bangladesh, india, nepal, pakistan, etc.
So I think all of us should work in hydrogen fuel. It is 100% environment friendly.
Am I right or wrong????

Srtm 30m Dem data has significantly less data coverage in Nepal region; even NasaDEM modified version of SRTM is not precise in that region, I have tried a fill function by which via idw interpolation I filled the gaps of those dem in that region, but since the holes in dem data extend up to 10km it is not scientifically justified to interpolate in that large region. Even after this kind of dem gaps filling interpolation algorithm, further processing using that dem like Slope, Aspect, etc. map carry forward those errors... Can anyone suggest any solution regarding how to fill those gaps in the srtm data?

In Nepal, crop insurance and refunding policy is is area-yield /revenue-based and cost of production based. Farmers are partially following crop insurance in comparison to livestock and other life insurance ones. Literatures say that weather index based insurance policy is more cheaper to the insurer and efficient to insured member. However, I am not getting appropriate literatures explaining logic on funding of government on it. Why not the most government not following weather-base policy? I request more elaborative answers as well as suggestions and literatures from the experts.

Nepal’s constitution does not state clearly about political affiliation or membership as criteria for ineligibility for the position of the judge. Can they remain members of a political party? Or can a person who served as a parliamentarian be appointed in the position of judge? How can possible conflict of interest be avoided?
Although the 23 February decision of the Supreme Court on house dissolution set a precedent and firmly established the separation of powers between three branches of the state and established constitutional supremacy, the time taken by the Supreme Court to determine the bench and the prolonged hearings of the case raised serious doubts on judicial fairness. All eyes were on the Supreme Court regarding whether the Court would be able to protect constitutionalism and maintain its integrity - keeping itself away from the political influence.
Public perceive that the judges are and can be influenced politically. Nepal's judicial history has proved that the political influence is the most common threat. Historical evidence shows that during the royal regime, it was controlled by the King and the royal palace and after the establishment of democracy by the political forces – judges are appointed based on political affiliation and political bhagbanda (sharing) and family ties. The provisions of the Interim Constitution, 2007 and the current Constitution, 2015 governing the selection, appointment and removal of judges reflects absolute political control over the judicial branch. Many of them owed their preferment to their party connections and disincline to sever against them undermining judicial integrity and independence.

Nepal is located in between India and China and has a 1590 km- long border with India and a 1414 km – long border with China. Any subversive or hostile act against either of its neighbor is almost impossible due to its geostrategic setting which is why balancing and responding to the legitimate interests of these neighbors and not offending their sensibilities are critically important for its survival and security.
We are carrying out an assessment of the impacts of a dam in western Nepal to the wildlife in the area. We plan to delineate impact zones (high, medium and low) of the dam based on the increasing distance from the dam site or any other criteria however couldn't find any scientific basis to delineate.
I was wondering if there are any scientific criteria to delineate such zones?
You may be aware of the application for Geographical information tag to Basmati rice by India to European Union (EU). Since Basmati rice is traditionally grown, sold, and consumed in Nepal and Pakistan since ancient times, both Nepal and Pakistan have submitted opposition letters to the EU. To further collect more support and evidence of origin and cultivation of Basmati rice in Nepal since ancient time, we request you all to provide any evidences, documentary, stories, anecdotes, folk-lore, video clip, poem, etc in support of its origin and cultivation, social and cultural values in Nepalese communities, and so on.
Thank you for your help.

I am trying to calculate the wealth index of a rural community of Nepal. For this, I used 10 household assets variables after conducting a descriptive analysis. I used the principal component analysis. I got the first four components have more than 1 eigenvalue, those four component explains 54% of the variance (the first component explains only 17.9%). The KMO measure of sampling adequacy is 0.619, Bartlett's test of sphericity is <0.001. Now, I am confused about the following things:
1. Does the wealth index create (by predict command) considers all component those eigenvalue is more than 1 or just the first component? If it is only the first component then, does it means it only explains 17.9% variance?
2. If I add one more variable, it increases the total variance, Bartlett's test remains significant, but KMO measure drops to 0.599. Can we consider KMO 0.599 as 0.6 (as 0.6 is the minimum acceptable value)?
Can I proceed with my study with the above results?
Sorry If my question is not clear, I can explain it further if you want.
Thank you
