I got this in an email.


Dear friends of Nepal:

As you all know after the advent of the so called democracy in 1990, the media sector was open to the private sector. Individuals with a shady past who had made a significant fortune during the panchayat period, needed to rehabilitate themselves in the post 1990 era.


One of the fortunate individuals with a vast hidden wealth was a gentleman called Hemraj Gyawali. He had served in a number of posts during the panchayat period . One of those mentioned posts was as a Customs Officer in the Far Western Region in Nepal . Not only did he accumulate a vast fortune, he was also involved in a murder case and there is a case pending against him.



With the help of some learned scholars and some businessman from abroad, he managed to open up Kantipur Publications. To disguise his illgotten fortune he found cover in businessmen like Upendra Mahato. Mr Mahato hence claims he hardly has any stake in Kantipur Publications.

It becomes quite clear that Kantipur Publications is fulfilling the interests of India . Kantipur Publications is also not TRANSPARENT about its source of funding and revenue.


Nepal possesses a vast amount of Hydropower resources. India obviously would like to tap in to Nepal's hydropower resources to fulfill its power requirements in the future. Booming economies cannot progress further without oil, gas and hydropower . What better way to go about it then to create unrest and insurgency in a landlocked neighbour .

Kantipur Publications suited India's interest well . RAW (Research and Analysis Wing) is being used by the Indian Embassy to fund Kantipur Publications



India used RAW to cancel ARUN III which would have helped Nepal tremendously. Kantipur lobbied vigorously against ARUN III at the behest of India. It is a known fact that Hemraj Gyawali has Bank accounts all over India.



With the help of the so-called scholars like Damakant Jaysi, Puran Bista and Prateek Pradhan , Hemraj Gyawali and Kantipur Publications are promoting unrest and upheaval in Nepal.



A weak Nepal is always in India's interest. The key word here is : HYDROPOWER .



Infact Prateek Pradhan is in the pay of South Block. Puran Bista and Damakant draw supplementary income from New Delhi

If you believe Hemaraj gyanwali is a murder, why the government is not talikg any action?
Well he had managed to the BAHUDALBADI leaders, but the current regime is so upset with Kantipur publication. DR.BHANDARI,You better write a BINTIPATRA to your Godfather so they will process to accuse Mr. gyawali

Oh one thing, How about you? Did you forget the abortion that you work for was not a murder?

This doctor Bhandari's statement is far removed from reality. He doesnot know any facts and acting onbehalf of some vested interest. Mr. Hem Raj Gyawali was high level government officer in fianace ministry and yes he became custom director but he belongs to a very good family and has good wealth and reputatio on his own. During the Panchayat era he was removed by one lady minister when Mr. Gyawali was doing his duty and fulfilling his reponsibility. When this lady minister was returning from a foreign trip something happened at the airport custom and later when Mr Gyawali got home he received his removal letter from the ministry. He could have fought back after 1990 but he did not. Two young guys Mr. Binod Gyawali and Mr. Kailash Sirohia are enthusiast entrepreneurs. They have struggled a lot. From opening a foreign good store to carpet thread factory to furniture shop. Begiining days of Kantipur was not so easy. Now when Kantipur has come long way and controlls three major media, everybody is just jealous.
If any thing has brought professionalism in nepalese journalism field its 'Kantipur'. Everything else had and has become a mouth piece of a party or a person.
I have seen reporter collecting money from the government officers and if government officers donot repond reporters will start character assassination. There are lot of people who wanted to associated with Kantipur on one way or the other when they could not they are trying hard to damage Kantipur's image. As I have said in the begining, Kantipur has come long way so its like "Hathi chale bazar kukur bhuke hajar"
Thanks
