    Mohan Baidya-led CPN-Maoist, the ultra-left faction that broke from the United CPN Maoist, wants us to boycott the second Constituent Assembly polls slated for 19 November 2013. Personally I don't agree with their call though I respect their right to not to take part in the electoral process. However, as an eager voter, I am against anyone who wants to disrupt elections. 12 Aug '13.

  • Nepal Telecom’s Improved 3G Service

    ,

    A week ago I posted an entry expressing my dissatisfaction with the Nokia Lumia 820 phone that I have been using since March. I wrote: Everything’s fine [with the phone] except the 3G connectivity. Not sure if it’s the Nepal Telecom network (I would like to think so and not blame the phone itself as yet) but I have…

It felt good to know that more and more people are using the phone (820) that I have been using for the past few months. But I am not satisfied with the phone lately.
