Who says bikini is no dress? It seems, the organizers of beauty contests in Nepal think it’s not a dress – hence, there aren’t any bikini rounds. Although there weren’t any bikini rounds in the beauty contest of Nepali beauties in the USA, the best dressed beauty was wearing one.
The judges found the bikini clad beauty Ruby Adhikari the best dressed beauty in the Miss Nepal USA 2011 beauty contest. Sujita Basnet was crowned the Miss Nepal USA 2011.

Mustang is the first and the only one vehicle assembled in Nepal. It is told that, most of the parts of the vehicle are imported from India and it is one of the cheapest vehicle available in Nepal.
Baburam’s choice of vehicle has been praised by everybody and this movie will surely skyrocket the sales of the vehicle in Nepal. If the producers can keep it’s reliability high enough, it will be successful in capturing the Nepali market.

PM Khanal inducts 10 new ministers after Maoist pressure
Aug 2, 2011 @ 18:57
Despite strong objection from his party CPN-UML and from opposition parties, Prime Minister Jhala Nath Khanal inducted 10 new ministers—nine from UCPN-Maoist with its Vice Chairman Narayan Kaji Shrestha leading the team as Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister and one from Madhesi Janaadhikar Forum Nepal (MJF-N).
The prime minister’s move comes after the Maoists withdrew the bulk resignation of the other ministers while keeping the support to the government intact. On Saturday evening, Maoist Chairman Dahal had handed over group resignation letters of his party ministers to PM Khanal in order to exert pressure for the reshuffle with 24 new faces.
PM Khanal on Monday administered oath of office and secrecy to 10 new ministers amidst a special function at Presidential Palace at Shital Niwas. However, the prime minister has said that he would tender resignation if the Maoists failed expedite peace process within next 10 days.
No smoke, no sale of tobacco products in public places from Aug 7
Rabindra Shrestha, 50-year-old father of a college-age daughter and a minister in-office, eloped with a 22-year-old student in February. Dipak Bhattarai named him the Valentine Hero and I wrote about it in a post at that time.
After a long silence, the couple have re-surfaced as husband and wife. In the photo above, Supekchya has sported, red Sindoor, a sign of a married woman.
Before we argue if they have done something good for the society
, let’s evaluate some of the Facebook posts of Supekchya:
Although they had run away in February, Supekshya waited for more than two months to announce her marriage. On April 22, she changed her profile to married.
It seems, the marriage of Manisha Koirala with Samrat Dahal is not going to last long. Last time, Manisha posted about her intention of divorce in May. She has done it again – by posting a bit more sad and harsh message in Facebook. The message reads:
My husband has become my enemy. How much worst can it become for a women?
Last time, the difference between the couple was was patched when friends and families helped them to soothe the relationship wounds. Manisha clarified that it was a minor issue with her husband.
Dr. Bhaburam Bhattarai of UCPN-Maoist is elected the new Prime Minister of Nepal on August 28, 2011.

Dr. Bhattarai received 340 votes out of 575 members of CA present in the voting and Paudel received the remaining 235 votes.
Congratulation and best wishes for the new PM, Dr. Bhattarai!

If an Ambassador can’t deal with a blogger, how can he deal with the foreign government?
The diplomatic height of Nepali Ambassador in France, Mohan Bikram Shrestha, is clearly seen by the way he dealt with a problem caused by Teej invitation.
Nepali Embassy in France organized a cultural program, Teej and invited people to participate in the program through the Embassy letter pad.
The problem – the wife of the Ambassador, Sajana Shrestha, signed the invitation instead of Ambassador. She shouldn’t have the authority to write in Embassy letter pad. Blogger friend in Dadhi Sapkota wrote about it in his blog.
The embassy should have realized the mistake and apologized. But, it didn’t. The response was more defensive and it tried to hide the mistake in their part:
A cartoon speaks volume! It lighten-up the mood, helps to make fun of some serious matter and brings smile in your face.
The creator however remains in the background and won’t be visible to the general public. So, here is the “Phalano guy” with his cartoon character looking at the cartoon Rajesh is making:
