Unique, 'on the ground' perspective of the current unrest in Nepal. Nepal, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, is a landlocked country in South Asia and, as of 2010, the world's most recent nation to become a republic. It is bordered to the north by the People's Republic of China, and to the south, east, and west by the Republic of India. Nepal is a country of highly diverse and rich geography, culture, and religions.Nepal today is at a critical crossroads, with hopes of its resurgence as a nation-state clouded in a mire of doubts and confusion. The first President of Nepal, Ram Baran Yadav, was sworn in on 23 July 2008, and this book is primarily based on the author s ground assessment reached through interactions with innumerable people, both high and low, during his recent trek through Nepal. They include, besides the man on the street, some key personalities from the worlds of politics, academia, bureaucracy and business, on what the country has become since the proposed establishment of a federal democratic republic.
