Preamble: I wrote this article either as a college junior or senior (I can’t recall) more than a decade ago. Nepal was going through constitution writing process and a political chaos. I think, I was practicing Nepali typing (I am weak at it now). I picked a relevant topic to write about which led to this article. Some of the context are irrelevant in 2025 but a few are still relevant. Some of my analysis are superficial. Regardless, I feel proud of this article. I decided to publish this article as it was written to archive publicly!
I wanted to write the summary post positively, just like I did for 2023. As I developed ideas for this post, my inner guts did not agree with what I wanted. I found it hard to write this post as I was battling with what I wanted to write vs. what I should write. I decided to write whatever I had on my mind in these few last hours of the year. Hopefully, this post will help reset my battling mind for a fresh start in the new year.
