LONDON: Non-Resident Nepali Association (NRNA) UK concluded its second council meeting here at Greenford in London on Sunday (May 20, 2012).

The programme was attended by its patron Dr. Upendra Mahato, ICC chairman Jiba Lamichhane, UK patron Professor Surya Subedi, among others.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Mahato urged all the NRNs to boost investment in Nepal as there was no risk situation at the moment. He also stressed that the Nepali Diaspora should focus more as to how they could contribute to make the country rich, thus leaving their personal ambition for wealth aside.

Chairman Lamichhane shed lights on the NRNA's remarkable achievements and said their demand for dual citizenship would not be ceased. He said they were exerting pressures on the political actors in Nepal for such a provision in the new constitution.

Nepali Ambassador to the UK Dr. Suresh Chandra Chalise urged for 'trilateral' investment idea involving local entrepreneurs, NRNs and foreigners.

Oh Hello! First plz mind your dialect!
I wish the Nepalese with good intention and sense of responsibility towards motherland fulfilled their duties regardless of whatever they receive in return.
The question here is do we really need such a provision of a mere citizenship to help Nepal and needy ones there who are reeling under scarcity of daily use commodities, drinking water, darkness, lack of roads, proper education, and to put in clearly and rather bluntly: devoid of the basic of the basics of life! Why do the NRNs need dual citizenship if they really want to see the country and fellow countrymen prosper? Are their well wishes and citizenship card in any way mutually exclusive entities?
I am sorry but I do not see any plausible logic behind the NRN rhetoric! If they want to do business, earn some quick bucks and want their investment secure with that, then the country too has every right to take decision on her interest.

This is yet another drama by our 10-pass restauranteurs here in the UK. The motherland is burning and so-called leaders are staging various dramas to find ways to stick to power to loot the state coffers. And these would-be politicians just seem oblivious to the situation there and repeating the rhetoric again...'dual citizenship'...!! What a shame...if there is no such provision, can't they fulfill the duty to their motherland...is anything preventing them from doing good deeds?? Absolutely NO...! Its a sad reality for the Nepalese they are giving birth to yet another generation of such illeterate and half-wit politicians. If they get such citizenship they will definitely go to Nepal and join these corrupt leaders or open yet another party and begin looting there!! Plz Plz...Stop these Bhagaudas from entering the country and let them die in foreign land in peace! We dont want these bunch in Nepal and giving big talk...Plz plz!!!
