को सुन्दर ?


विश्व प्रख्यात साहित्यकार म्याक्सिम गोर्कीको अनुसार संस्कृति भनेको मानव श्रमद्धारा निर्मित दोस्रो प्रकृति हो । मानिसले श्रमद्धारा दोस्रो प्रकृति निर्माण नगरेको भए अरु जीवजन्तु जस्तै नाङ्गै हुन्थ्यो । त्यसतै, कार्ल माक्र्सले भनेका छन्, मानिस त्यसबेला ज्यादै खुसी देखिन्छन, जब उसले गोरुले झै श्रम गरिरहेका हुन्छन् । माक्र्सवादीहरु श्रमलाई सौन्दर्यको केन्द्र मान्छन् । यी भनाईलाई आत्मसात् गछौँ भने नेपाली समाजका सवभन्दा सुन्दर मान्छे दलितहरु नै हुन् । तर आज घर र स्कुलका शिक्षा एकदम सर्लक्क कतै पनि नफुटेका मुलायम हातलाई सौन्दर्यका रुपमा परिभाषित गर्दछ । हलो जोत्ने, फलाम पगाल्ने, लुगा सिउने, मुर्ती बनाउने, आरन चलाउने, घर बनाउने, भुई सफा गर्ने आदि हाथलाई सौन्दर्यको रुपमा परिभाषित गर्दैनन् । गोरो मात्र सुन्दर हुन्छन् , अग्लो मात्र सुन्दर हुन्छन्, लाम्चो आँखा मात्र सुन्दर देखिन्छन्, चिम्सा आखा भएका नराम्रा हुन्छन्...............गोरा मात्र सुन्दर होईन्...काला पनि सुन्दर हुन्छन्....र सबभन्दा सुन्दर श्रम हुन्छन्....त्यसैले श्रमजीवि, शिल्पकर्मी दलितहरु सबभन्दा बढी सुन्दर छन् ।

Dr Ambedkar’s Speech at World Fellowship of Buddhists, Nepal

Dr. Ambedkar’s speech at the closing session of the Fourth Conference of the World Fellowship of Buddhists in the State Gallery Hall in Kathmandu (Nepal), on  20th November 1956. President, Your Reverences, Ladies and Gentlemen I  am sorry that, having come to Nepal to attend the Conference, I have not been able to participate in its proceedings in the way in which a delegate ought to participate, but I am sure, I am  physically a very ill man, and I am quite unable to bear the stress and strain of the Conference proceedings.  It is, therefore, not out of any disrespect for the Conference that I have been usually absent, it is because of my personal condition that I could not do justice to the task of the Conference.  It is perhaps because of my absence from the Conference that I was asked by way of compensation to address you this afternoon.  I consented to do that, but even here there have been rather surprised flung upon me.  I had not enough...

कति शताब्दीसम्म चाहिन्छ सवर्णलाई आरक्षण ?

-राजकिशोर रजक नेपाल प्रतिनिधि सभा र प्रदेश सभा चुनावको संघारमा छ । चुनावमा मिश्रित निर्वाचन प्रणाली अपनाइएको छ । प्रतिनिधि सभामा जम्मा २७५ प्रतिनिधि रहने व्यवस्था गरिएको छ । पहिलो हुने निर्वाचित हुने प्रक्रियाबाट १६५ र समानुपातिक प्रतिनिधित्वबाट ११० गरी जम्मा २७५ सदस्यीय प्रतिनिधि सभाको व्यवस्था गरिएको छ । यो निर्वाचन प्रणाली पहिलो संविधान सभा निर्वाचन प्रणालीभन्दा प्रतिगमनकारी छ । पहिलो संविधान सभा निर्वाचन प्रणालीमा ४० प्रतिशत पहिलो हुने निर्वाचित हुने र ६० प्रतिशतभन्दा बढी समानुपातिक प्रतिनिधित्व हुने व्यवस्था गरिएको थियो । त्यसैकारण नेपाली इतिहासमा सबभन्दा बढी समावेशी प्रतिनिधित्व पहिलो संविधान सभामै भएको थियो । र, समाजको बनौटअनुसारको हाराहारीमा संविधान सभाको बनौट भएको थियो । यस्तो सुन्दर समावेशी निर्वाचन प्रणाली शासक जातिलाई मन परेन । खस–आर्यलाई ३१.२% आरक्षण ! ‘कम दुःखले आर्जेको मूलुक होइन’ भनी दाबी गर्ने शासक जाति संघीय लोकतान्त्रिक गणतन्त्र नेपाल २०७२ को संविधानबाट प्रतिक्रान्ति गर्न सफल भएको छ । समानुपातिक निर्वाचन प्रणालीमा अब ऐतिहासिक तथा प्रणालीगत रूपमा विभेद, अन्...

Why Student’s Day Celebrations Don’t Make Sense

November 7th was observed as Student’s Day in Maharashtra to mark Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar’s entry into school.  He enrolled at the Pratapsingh High School in the Maharashtra’s Satara district 117 years ago on November 7, 1900. He faced caste discrimination in school and during his whole career. What has changed for Dalit students in last 117 years that day should be remembered as Student’s Day? Caste discrimination faced by Dalit students is every day’s story. Did you know that  in India 49% of children out of school are SC/STs and 25% are Muslims ? It is really shameful that even after the laws such as Right to Education, nothing has changed for Dalits.  School dropouts are mainly because of the inhumane attitude & discrimination of Dalit students by the upper caste teachers. Poor students are unwilling to attend the schools to avoid humiliation as they’re not left with any options Dalit students are forced to clean toilets & cooking utensils & aren’t al...
