Buddha to feature on Rs 500, Rs 1000 notes Kantipur Report KATHMANDU, Jan 25 - A recent cabinet meeting has approved Nepal Rastra Bank's proposal to use the Buddha's picture instead of the king's on Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes. According to a source, the cabinet has picked the Buddha picture from among various alternatives suggested by the Notes Design Committee of Nepal Rastra Bank. The central bank had initiated the exercise to replace the king's picture from notes of all denominations following the historic April Movement that sidelined the monarchy from state affairs and even raised questions about its very survival. Except for the picture nothing will change in the design of the notes. "The other design of the notes will be retained," said the source. The source informed The Kathmandu Post that the new notes with the picture of the Buddha would come into circulation in the next six months.

hehe i find it pretty ironic..buddha who kinda left all material/monetary stuffs to attain nirvana..in the end he cant run away?is this the way of the world sayn..u can try to run away but u cant ;oP.. anyways think it be a nice change..esp when seeing buddha's face..ppl might start to "give away" those notes more easily?;oP yeah yeah im day dreamin :oS..but next time in nepal when someone says "im dreamin of buddha day and night..seeing his many many faces..having myself surrounded by him" wont mean the same eh?;oP hehe hah i shud ask my buddhist fren wat he thinks about this..tho im not too sure this is being done for the 1st time..has another country done this before?im sure someone has.. and yeah its def to show respect and other advantages purpose(how minor they might be ;oP..) its all good :oD anyways lookin foward to seeing those new notes and touchn them too(beggars cant be choosers?:oS hehe) good day!:oD

it is definately ironic to have Buddha in those notes.And the most ironic thing is there is no other alternative to have him replaced.We could have our sahid in some notes but then Nepal's the only country that has 1000s of sahid and yet it is in dismay.No offense what so ever. Jahan chan Buddha ka aakha.. sneet santa ra sunder tyahan cha santi ko chetra(is it even true.......) mero rastra............ Purkha ko mantra yo japcha chautari ma basi It would be better if we could leave buddha away from all these monetary matters... Do u guys have anyother figures that may replace Buddha????

Sure, everybody would want to see a beautiful Nepali woman's picture. But what does that have to do with you? ;-) ;-) Just kidding.

अब नहीं चलेगा राजा का सिक्का नेपाल नरेश बिल्कुल अलग-थलग पड़ गए हैं नेपाल में अप्रैल 2006 में राजा विरोधी आंदोलन चलाए जाने के बाद राजा राजनीतिक पटल से तो हट ही गए थे अब नेपाल के केंद्रीय बैंक ने भविष्य में जारी होने वाले नोटों और सिक्कों से भी राजा की तस्वीर हटाने की योजना बनाई है. नोटों और सिक्कों पर राजा के स्थान पर अन्य तस्वीरें छापने के अनेक विकल्प सरकार की मंज़ूरी के लिए पेश भी कर दिए गए हैं. अप्रैल 2006 में राजा विरोधी आंदोलन के बाद राजा को अपने बहुत से अधिकारों का त्याग करना पड़ा था. राजा विरोधी रहे माओवादी भी जल्दी ही गठित होने वाली साझा सरकार में शामिल होने वाले हैं. नेपाल के वित्त सचिव विद्यासागर मलिक ने कहा है कि नेपाल राष्ट्रीय बैंक ने राजा की तस्वीर के स्थान पर अन्य तस्वीर छापने के लिए नौ नमूने पेश किए हैं और मंत्रिपरिषद इन पर विचार करके मंज़ूरी देगी और इस बारे में जल्दी ही फ़ैसला किया जाएगा. इन नमूनों में नेपाल के राष्ट्रीय हीरो के तौर पर पहचाने जाने वाले व्यक्तित्वों की भी तस्वीरें हैं जिनमें महात्मा बुद्ध और राजकुमारी सीता की तस्वीरें भी हैं. इन नमूनों में हिमालय पर्वत, एवरेस्ट चोटी की भी तस्वीर हैं. एवरेस्ट दुनिया भर में सबसे ऊँची पर्वत चोटी है. अधिकारियों ने कहा है कि एक ऐसा सिक्का पहले से ही काफ़ी चल रहा है जिस पर खेती करता हुआ किसान नज़र आता है और एक ऐसा नोट भी जल्दी ही चलाने की योजना है जिस पर महात्मा बुद्ध की तस्वीर छपी होगी. वित्त सचिव ने किसान की तस्वीर वाले सिक्के का ज़िक्र करते हुए कहा, "यह पहला ऐसा सिक्का प्रचलन में आया है जिस पर राजा का नाम नहीं लिखा गया है." अधिकारियों ने कहा है कि अगर सबकुछ पूर्व योजना के अनुसार ही चला तो नए सिक्के और नोट साल 2007 में ही मई और जून तक प्रचलन में आ जाएंगे.

हिन्दी पनि आफ्नै देशको भाषा हो तापनि अरुले पढुन् भनेर डल्लिजीले यंहा छाप्नु भयेको हो भने नेपालि वा अङ्रेजिमा उल्ठा गरि दिनु भएको सबैले बुझ्ने मौका पाउने थिये कि !

Hahah Perrybhadra, are you serious? Sayami pasted Buddha's head on an old note. Now Nepal is putting Buddha on her notes, I don't know what Indian organizations will come out with. So many people still think Nepal is a part of India and Buddha was born in India, the new notes will also give some negetive impressions. Again extremist will voice to put their own icons on notes. Soon we may see notes with Shiva, Ganesh, Muhamud, Paruhang, Kumari etc on them.
