As part of their effort to create better awareness about issues pertaining to Nepal, the NY-based
Alliance for Democracy and Human Rights in Nepal is proud to have scheduled first of their "Bichaar Bimarsha" series on July 17th, 2005, Sunday. The complete detail of the event is listed below.
The documentary -- "The Killing Terraces" -- although nearly four years old, is an excellent depiction of the Maoist crisis in Nepal, and should still be very relevant to any Nepal watcher.
Please be advised that the seating is limited and that there already seems to be a very high degree of enthusiasm for the documentary. Therefore, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND that anyone interested in attending the event to pre-register at:
