प्राकृतिक सौन्दर्यमा रमेको पहाडकी रानी दार्जिलिङलाई त्यसै पहाडकी रानी भनेर सम्बोधित गरेका होईनन् साँच्चै नै दार्जिलिङ सम्पूर्ण गुणले सम्पन्न भएकी छिन्। कञ्चनजङ्घाको काखमा बसेको दार्जिलिङलाई हेर्दा एकदमै रमणीय देखिन्छ मानौ एउटी जननीले आफ्नो शिशुलाई काखमा राखेर खेलाईरहेकी छिन्।भारत देशको पश्चिम बंगाल स्थित उत्तर बंगालमा रहेको दार्जिलिङमा बिभिन्न भाषा,जात,धर्म,समुदाय,संस्कृतिका मानिसहरु बसोबासो गर्छन् जसरी कुनै बगैंचामा नाना थरीका फुलहरु मिलेर बसेका हुन्छन्।दार्जिलिङ तिनवटा 'टि' -ले गर्दा प्रसिद्ध...

The Power of One Voice
Darjeeling

The Power of One Voice

The Power of One Voice A voice is one of the most powerful things a person possesses. It cannot be seen. It cannot be touched. Yet it has the ability to comfort, challenge, inspire, and transform lives. Every great idea was once just a voice. Every important conversation began with someone speaking. Every act of courage started with a person who chose to break the silence. Many people believe their voice...

Tukvar Valley: Darjeeling's Quiet Treasure Waiting to Bloom Again

Tukvar Valley: Darjeeling's Quiet Treasure Waiting to Bloom Again By Rishiraj Thapa Darjeeling is, and will always be, the Queen of the Hills. It is rich in beauty and rich in resources.

Long...

परिवर्तनको लहर

खल्तीमा केही छैन, पेटमा भोकको आगो काम खोज्दै भौंतारिन्छु, दिन नै हुन्छ कालो | पसिना बगेको छ, जमिन भिज्ने गरी तर श्रमको मूल्य छैन, जिन्दगी अलपत्र परी | सबैले भन्छन् विकास, कहाँ गयो हाम्रो भाग? सरकार सुत्छ गहिरो निन्द्रामा, यहाँ त जिउँदै मर्नु पर्ने राग। डिग्रीका कागजहरू रद्दीको टोकरीमा फ्याँकिए नेताका आश्वासनहरू हावामा उडी बाँडिए भनसुन बिना केही चल्दैन, यहाँ त योग्यताको खडेरी।। हाम्रो भाग्य कोर्ने कलमहरू, बन्द कोठाको घेराभित्र अँधेरी।। न त छ साथ...

The Toy Train's Diary

The Toy Train's Diary

I was born before your grandparents were born. Long before smartphones, before election rallies echoed through the hills, before the walls of Darjeeling learned the colours of political parties, I was already climbing these mountains. I am the little blue train that whistles through mist. People call me the Toy Train. Every election season, I watch the hills change. New flags appear like sudden flowers. Walls bloom with promises. Loudspeakers...
