“Ours is a country where babies are born with crushing debts, where more than half the country are hungry and homeless, where the rays of modernisation never reach those far-flung remote villages, where there is not network of roads in mountain districts, no safe drinking water or a regular supply of already meagre electricity. We sell the electricity at low price and buy back at high price – what madness is this? Those buggers on the high government chairs should die of shame.” PovertyDevelopmentDebtNepal Author:DB Gurung
