I heard two people talking to each other
while I was on the roof of a bus (because I had to go to college and bus was
too pack), “No one can be as patient as we Nepalese”. At that time like
everyone else I was laughing but now that I think of it, it is indeed true.
It’s already been more than 100 days because of the unofficial blockade daily
life of people is severely disturbed.
From going to college early in the morning
for students and teachers to the hardship of making an early cup of tea for
family, we Nepalese are facing great amount of stress every day. The lack of
fuel is just a primary problem the further problem it had risen are more
critical such as difficulty in transportation, difficulty in preparing foods,
shortage of medicines, closing of schools and so on. This has also raised the
black market in Nepalese economy which have affected the people especially
those who are in grass root level. Despite several consolations to the citizen
nothing much concrete is done or has been effective on this issue.
But what is incredible is the level of
patience and solidarity we Nepalese are showing and no it not only consists of
people in Hilly area but common people in Terai too are showing their patience
and hope to come out of this critical condition. Lastly we hope that things
will get better and once again we can at least return back to status-quo.
