The Republic of China (often referred to as Taiwan) and the People's Republic of China are the two governments that now represent the nation of "China" (mainland China). Infighting on the Chinese mainland resumed after World War II, with the Republic of China government fleeing to Taiwan and the group led by Mao Zedong forming the People's Republic of China. The PRC still controls mainland China, while the ROC controls Taiwan, the Penghu archipelago, and the tiny islands of Kinmen and Matsu, all while claiming sovereignty over "China." There has been a lot of debate as to Taiwan being part of China. Taiwan is an independent country and has its own government, democratically elected leaders, and about 300,000 active troops in its armed forces. It considers itself a different country but legally it is still a part of China. As the Chinese government is concerned Taiwan is a renegade province that must be reunified with China. Back then Taiwan was handed back to the Republic of China.
In the 1980s, relations between China and Taiwan began to improve. China proposed the "one country, two systems" approach, in which Taiwan would be granted extensive autonomy in exchange for accepting Chinese reunification. This system was created in Hong Kong to serve as a showcase for luring Taiwanese citizens back to the mainland. Taiwan declined the offer, although it did ease restrictions on Chinese visitors and investment. It also declared the mainland war with the People's Republic of China to be concluded in 1991. Taiwan is considered a breakaway province by China, which has promised to reclaim it by force if necessary. Taiwan's leaders, on the other hand, argue that the country is far more than a province and that it is a sovereign state. It has its own constitution, democratically elected authorities, and an armed force of around 300,000 active troops. Chiang Kai-Republic she’s of China (ROC) administration, which fled the mainland to Taiwan in 1949, claimed to represent all of China at first. It was the sole Chinese government recognized by several Western nations and held China's seat on the United Nations Security Council. The ROC administration was driven out after the UN transferred diplomatic recognition to Beijing in 1971. The number of countries that recognize the ROC government diplomatically has dropped dramatically since then, to around 15. Given the vast gap between these two viewpoints, most other countries are content to tolerate the current uncertainty, in which Taiwan possesses nearly all of the features of an independent state, even if its legal status is unknown.
Some Taiwanese citizens are concerned that their country's economy has become too reliant on China. Others feel that because of the expense to China's economy, deeper business connections make Chinese military action less likely. In 2014, the "Sunflower Movement" erupted in Taiwan, with students and activists occupying the legislature to protest what they saw as China's rising control over Taiwan. Officially, the ruling DPP continues to support Taiwan's formal independence, while the KMT supports reunification. According to a March 2021 opinion poll commissioned by the Taiwanese government, the majority of Taiwanese approve of the DPP government's policy of "national sovereignty safeguarding." People are increasingly describing themselves as Taiwanese rather than Chinese.
छुवाछुत प्रथा नेपालमा सदियौंदेखि रहेको नराम्रो प्रथा हो । छुवाछुत प्रथा जात, धर्म, पेसा, क्षेत्र, लिङ्ग, अपाङ्गता, शारीरिक प्रणाली आदिका आधारमा गरिने भेदभाव हो । नेपालको सहरी क्षेत्रको तुलनामा ग्रामीण क्षेत्रमा छुवाछुत प्रथा अझै व्यापक रूपमा चलिरहेको भेटिन्छ । कतिपय स्थानहरूमा दलित समुदायमाथि छोइछिटो गर्ने, मन्दिर प्रवेशमा रोक लगाउने , सार्वजनिक कुवा, पँधेरोमा रोक लगाउने जस्ता व्यवहार भइरहेका छन् ।
अहिलेको २१ औँ शब्दादीमा पनि मानिसमा परम्परागत सोचाइ हट्न सकेको छैन। मानिस कोही पनि जातका आधारमा सानो र ठुलो हुँदैन । मानिस त कामले पो महान बन्छ। महाकवि लक्ष्मीप्रसाद देवकोटाले पनि “मानिस ठुलो दिलले हुन्छ जातले हुँदैन” भनेका छन्।
मानिस मानिस त सबै एकै हुन् । प्राचीन कालमा मानिसले गरेका कामका आधारमा पछि मानिसले जात छुट्यायो र त्यही जातका आधारमा छुवाछुत गर्न थाल्यो।
छुवाछुत जस्ता व्यवहार हाम्रा समाजका समस्या हुन् । परम्परागत सोचमा आधारित यस्ता समस्या समाधान गर्न शिक्षा र सचेतना बढाउनु जरुरी छ । सहरमा यो समस्या बिस्तारै कम हुँदै पनि गएको छ । जबसम्म हामी मानिस मात्र हौँ भन्ने चेतना सबैमा हुँदैन तबसम्म यस्ता समस्या हट्दैनन् । त्यसैले यस्ता समस्या शिक्षा र सचेतना बढाएर समाजबाट हटाउनुपर्छ ।
खै यो कस्तो समय हो ?
भन्छन् सबै नराम्रो
भन्छन् ; सबै वशमा छैन हाम्रो
मान्छेदेखि मान्छे भाग्नु पर्ने
खै यो कस्तो समय ?
भेटघाट गर्नु पनि हुँदैन रे
कार्यालय , विद्यालय कतै जानु हुँदैन रे
घरभित्रै बस्नु पर्ने भिडभाड देखे कुना पस्नु पर्ने
खै यो कस्तो समय हो ?
न विवाहमा जन्ती न त मर्दा मलामी
लैजान्छ रे सेनाले घाटमा न त दिन्छ सलामी
न त रोएर दु:ख साट्न सकिन्छ ,
न त आँसुले व्यथा बाँड्न सकिन्छ।
देखे मेरै आँखाले गुमाएका आफन्त ,
हामीसँगै छ यो महामारी खोज्नु पर्दैन अन्त।
हराएको छैन यो अपनाऔँ सावधानी ,
नत्र गर्छ यसले मानवको हानी।
नत्र गर्छ यसले मानवको हानी
The practice in which people get discriminated against because of their caste, religion, occupation etc they belong to is known as untouchability. In the practice of untouchability there are groups known as touchables and untouchables. Untouchables are those people who are not allowed to touch touchables, enter touchables houses, use the public properties, children are not allowed to go to school and get education and many more things. It is stated that the people who are considered untouchable and if they touch touchable or public properties they become impure and bad. To become pure again there is a tradition that sprinkling holy water on the person who was touched by the untouchable will be purified. All these types of traditions are just beliefs made by people and are inviting social problems in our society and making our people behave badly to other people.
Untouchability is still practiced in the rural areas of Nepal where they discriminate people and not let them do any other things. The touchable beat the untouchable, throw dust at them, and other people will just ignore this and let these things happen. They won’t do anything to these people in those areas which are clearly very bad things and still it is being practiced in some places of Nepal. For example in the rural places of Nepal people have prohibited Dalits from entering the temple, using the public tap, not letting them enter their houses and many more things. These traditions are social problem which is harming the human rights that are given to other people. So we all need to do something to stop this tradition which is still being practiced in the rural areas because it is harming many people's lives and is also harming the rights that are given to the people.
Some of the effects which can be seen because of untouchability are that it causes conflict in the society. The victim who is discriminated might get depression, tension, fear, humiliation ,etc and might even give up on their life because of these things and we cannot accept this. It also affects the psychology of children after seeing such things in the society. Most of the children can’t even attend school because of discrimination and getting bullied by their friends being in low class family. It harms the cooperation between people and builds hate and anger between people. It also causes loss of social value.
The things that we all can do to end untouchability and other social problems are that we need to spread awareness and provide education to the people who still follow these traditions. Also the government should make a strong and effective law against it and if someone does these kinds of things again that person should be putten in jail for violating human rights. We should teach the people how untouchability has a negative effect on the sufferer's life and the children's psychology too. These are some of the things that we can do to solve untouchability faster and we all need to get together to end these social problems fast in our country.

Social media refers to those websites and applications that enable the users to share content, get information, ideas, career interests etc. In the present context social media has huge roles or impacts in the people or today’s society. Like every other thing, social media too has both positive and negative impacts. The question is whether it has more of a positive impact or negative one.
The positive impact of social are:
Likewise social media has various other negative impacts as well. Some of them can be:
कुनै पनि देशको आवश्यकताअनुसार त्यस देशको जनसङ्ख्याको वृद्धि,बितरण,क्षमता विकास र नियन्त्रणका कार्य गर्नुलाई जनसङ्ख्या व्यवस्थापन भनिन्छ । अहिले विश्वमा नै जनसङ्ख्या तीव्ररूपमा बढिरहेको छ । हाम्रो देश नेपालमा पनि जनसङ्ख्या तीव्ररूपमा वृद्धि भइरहेको छ ।
राष्ट्रिय जनगणना–२०७८ मा नेपालको जनसङ्ख्या लगभग ३ करोड पुग्ने अनुमान गरिएको छ । एघारौँ जनगणना–२०६८ का अनुसार जनसङ्ख्या वृद्धिदर १.३५ प्रतिशत प्रतिवर्ष छ । जनसङ्ख्या वृद्धिले सामाजिक, आर्थिक र वातावरणीय पक्ष अनि विकासका क्रियाकलापमा प्रत्यक्ष प्रभाव पार्छ । क्षेत्र वा स्थानैपिच्छेको शैक्षिक स्तर, रोजगारी, सरदर आयु, मृत्युदर, जन्मान्तरजस्ता विषयका तथ्याङ्क पाइने भएकाले पनि सामाजिक परिवर्तनको खाका कोर्न जनगणनाको सकारात्मक भूमिका हुन्छ । जनसङ्ख्या व्यवस्थापनमा राज्यको आवश्यकताअनुसार आवश्यक पर्ने जनसङ्ख्याको आकार कायम गर्न घटी वा बढीको नीति निर्धारण गरिन्छ।
नेपालजस्तो देशका लागि छिटो जनसङ्ख्या वृद्धि हुनु र यसको व्यवस्थापन सही तरिकाले नहुनु भनेको चिन्ताको विषय हो । क्षेत्रफलका हिसाबले यति सानो देशमा जनसङ्ख्या वृद्धिदर प्रतिवर्ष १.३५ प्रतिशतले बढ्दै जानुले अझै पनि नेपालमा गरिबी र अशिक्षा व्यापकरूपमा छ भन्ने बुझिन्छ । जनसङ्ख्या वृद्धि आज नेपालको मात्र नभएर विश्वकै लागि ठुलो चिन्ताको विषय भएको छ। फलतः पछिल्लो जनगणनामा जनसङ्ख्याको वृद्धिदर घटेता पनि तराई तथा सहरी क्षेत्रमा भने जनसङ्ख्या बढ्दो रूपमा रहेको छ। अतः जनसङ्ख्यालाई तुलना गर्दा गाउँकाे राजधानीको जनसंख्या बस्ती भने दिन दुई गुना रात चार गुणाले घना हुन पुगेको छ।
जनसङ्ख्या व्यवस्थापनका लागि उपायहरु निम्नानुसार छन
: उमेर पुगेपछि मात्र विवाह गर्ने
: जन्मान्तर कायम गर्ने
: परिवार नियोजन
: स्वास्थ र जनसङ्ख्या शिक्षामा जोड दिने
: लैङ्गिक समानता कायम गर्ने
Today's generation is so developed because of science and technology. Science has proved to be more of a gift for man than an invention. Science is one of the biggest achievements in human history. People's thinking has changed due to science and technology. Many undiscovered and unknown things have been known and explained by science. Due to it people can go to any city, country or planet as soon as possible making our lives easier than ever compared to the past. Modern inventions allow us to gain knowledge of the world by sitting in a room at home. The work that uses lots of time and effort can be easily done in hours or less nowadays. We can do anything and everything possible from our home because of science and technology.
Some contributions and advantages given by science and technologies are:
These all types of advantages from science and technology help us in multiple ways. But technology not only has advantages but also disadvantages too.
Some of the disadvantages of science and technologies are:
Technologies have both advantages and disadvantages so don't be careless. It sure has become a source of help, but also it is hampering us in many ways. Now technologies have evolved so much that everyone has their own mobile phone. Younger children also have their own mobile phones. Students have become so addicted to online games that it is affecting their studies. Students are also getting very low grades because of mobile phones. Recently, I would like to say that technology is advancing day by day. Now we know that every day in the future there will be more advanced technologies and further advancement. So let's be careful, know the limitations and don't let technology affect our lives in bad ways.
पढ्न पाएनन् कति आँखाहरूले
लेख्न पाएनन् कति ,
शिक्षाको ज्योति गुमाए
कति साना नानीबाबुहरूले ।
कतिको रोजगारी नै गुम्यो,
कतिको घरको छाना नै उड्यो ।
कस्तो समय आयो,
सबैलाई दुःख भोग्ने बनायो ।
धेरैले आफ्ना प्रियजन गुमाए,
कतिले सिङ्गो संसार नै गुमाए।
कतिले दुःख सहन नसकी,
आफ्नो आयु नै मेटाए।
दुःखको भारी बोकी
कहाँसम्म होला लाने ?
बिसाउने ठाउँ नै आएन
राम्रो कहिले हुने थाह नै भएन ।
अहिले दुःख भए पनि
पछि सुख हुनेछ ,
दुःखको रात गएपछि
सुनौलो घाम अवश्य लाग्ने छ ।
There are a total of 6 ancient civilizations. These civilizations can be clearly identified as: Egypt, Mesopotamia (present-day Iraq and Iran), the Indus Valley (present-day Pakistan and Afghanistan), China, Mexico and Peru. Greek or the Hellenes are the people who lived in or were historically established on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea. Greek Mythology is the set of stories about the gods, goddesses, heroes and rituals of Ancient Greeks. Greek Mythology was a part of the religion in ancient Greece. The most popular Greek Mythology figures are Greek Gods like Zeus, Poseidon and Apollo as well as Greek Goddesses like Aphrodite, Hera and Athena and Titans like Atlas. There are more than 300 gods, goddesses and titans in Greek mythology. And here are some myth of the famous characters of greek mythology:
Hercules: Son of Zeus and nemesis of the goddess Hera. He is perhaps best known for his fantastic feats of strength and daring, he was often called the "12 Labors" as some of these labors include slaying the nine-headed hydra, stole the girdle of the Amazonian Queen Hippolyta, tamed Cerberus, and slayed the Nemean lion. Hercules died after his wife, jealous that she might have another lover, smeared a tunic with deadly centaur's blood, the pain of which drove Hercules to kill himself. Hercules received the honor to live once again among the gods on Mount Olympus.
Achilles: Achilles was the Greeks' finest warrior during the Trojan War. His mother, the nymph Thetis, dipped him in the River Styx to make him invulnerable in battle except for his heel as it was where she gripped the baby. During the Trojan War, Achilles received fame by slaying Hector in the city gates. But he didn't have much time as he died later in battle when an arrow shot by the Trojan prince Paris, guided by the gods, struck the one spot on his body: his heel.
Perseus: Perseus was the son of Zeus, as a young man, the gods helped Perseus to slay the snaky-tressed gorgon Medusa, who was so ugly that she could turn anyone to stone who looked directly at her.
Bellerophon: Bellerophon is known for capturing and taming the wild winged stallion Pegasus. With the assistance from the divine, Bellerophon succeeded in riding the horse and headed out to slay the chimera that had been menacing Lycia. After he slain the beast, Bellerophon's fame grew until he became convinced that he was not a mortal but a god. He tried to ride Pegasus to Mount Olympus, which angered Zeus that he caused Bellerophon to fall to earth and die.
काजल र कार्तिक सानैदेखिका मिल्ने साथी थिए। उनीहरूले एउटै विद्यालयबाट एस.इ.इ पास गरेका थिए । कलेज ११ र १२ पनि एउटै विद्यालयमा पढेका थिए। उनीहरूबिच घनिष्ट मित्रता थियो । ३ कक्षामा भेट भएका यी दुवैले एक अर्कासँग धेरै समय बिताउँथे। स्नातक चाहिँ काजलले नेपालमा नै पूरा गर्ने निर्णय गरी भने कार्तिकले विदेश गएर पढ्ने निधो गर्यो । जीवनको ९ वर्षसम्म नछुट्टिएका ती दुई साथीहरूले अब ४-५ वर्षका लागि एक अर्काबाट छुट्टिनै पर्ने अवस्था आयो। दुवैले एक दिनमा एकचोटि भने भिडियो कल गर्ने वाचा गरे । नेपालमा बाँकी रहेका केही दिन उनीहरूले एकअर्कासँगै बिताए। त्यसपछि कार्तिक आफ्नो स्नातक तहका लागि बेलायत गयो । सुरुका केही महिना त उनीहरूले हरेक दिन एकअर्कालाई भिडियो कल गरेर आफूले दिनभरि गरेका कुराहरू बताउँथे । दिन प्रतिदिन कार्तिकको काम बढ्दै गयो र उनीहरूको बोलिचाली कम हुँदै जान थाल्यो। पहिलेका ती लामा भिडियो कलहरू केवल केही छोटा मेसेजहरूमा परिणत हुन थाले । यसैबिचमा काजलले कार्तिकप्रति आफ्ना भावनाहरू विकास गर्न थाली । उसलाई कार्तिक साथीभन्दा बढी मन पर्न थाल्यो । आफ्नो मनका भावना भनेपछि त्यस्तो राम्रो मित्रता टुट्ने पो हो कि भन्ने कुरा उसको मनमा खेल्न थाल्यो । केही समयपछि भने जेसुकै होस् भनेर उसले आफ्नो मनमा रहेकाे कुरा कार्तिकलाई भनेरै छाेड्ने निर्णय लिई । भावना व्यक्त गर्नका लागि उसले एउटा प्रेम पत्र लेखेर पठाउने विचार गरी ।
प्यारो कार्तिक,
तिमीलाई धेरै धेरै माया र मिठाे सम्झना
तिमी अहिले थोरै चकित हुन सक्छौ । सधैँ मेसेज पठाउने साथीले आज किन पत्र पठाइछे भन्ने प्रश्न दिमागमा आएको होला । आज म तिमीलाई जे कुरा भन्न गइरहेकी छु त्यो कुरा मलाई फाेन वा मेसेज गरेर बताउन मन लागेन त्यसैले यो पत्र राम्रोसँग पढ। बिस्तारै पत्र पढेपछि सबै कुरा थाहा पाउँछौ । म यो पत्रलाई त्यति लामो भने बनाउँदिन । जे जति भन्नु छ सरासर भन्छु।
तिमी विदेश गएको पनि ७ महिना जति भएछ । तिम्रो याद त मलाई असाध्यै आउँछ। बाल्यकालका ती पलहरू मलाई अहिलेसम्म पनि याद छ । कति रमाइला थिए ती पलहरू। त्यही समयमा फेरि फर्किन पाए हुन्थ्यो नि हगि ? यी सबै दु:ख र पीडाबाट टाढा । जसले जेसुकै भने पनि मतलब नलाग्ने त्यो समयमा फर्किन पाए कत्ति रमाइलो हुन्थ्यो । तर के गर्नु एउटा समय आएपछि धेरै बदलाव आउँदो रहेछ । जीवनका ९ वर्ष सँगै बिताएका कारण होला, तिमीविना मलाई एकदमै एक्लो महसुस हुन्छ, आजकाल । घरमा पनि अवस्था त्यति राम्रो छैन । यस्तो आपतको घडीमा तिमी मेरो साथमा भएको भए मलाई एकदमै सजिलो हुन्थ्यो भन्ने जस्तो लाग्न थालेको छ । तिमी पनि उता काम गर्दै पढिरहेका छौ । निकै गाह्रो छ तिम्रो लागि सबै कुरा सँगै सम्हाल्न । हरेक दिन तिमीलाई थकित देख्दा मेरो मन एकदमै दु:खी हुन थालेको छ । मलाई यो के भैरहेको छ भन्ने कुरा यसरी बुझाउन आउँदैन त्यसैले तलको कविताले मेरो मनको भावना बुझाइदिएको छ । कविता पढेपछि मैले के भन्न खोजेको हो तिमीले पक्कै पनि बुझ्ने छौ । मलाई अहिले नै जवाफ भने चाहिँदैन। म आशा छु कि यो कुराले हामीबिचको मित्रतामा केही असर पु-याउने छैन ।
तिम्रा ती काला आँखाले मेरो मनकाे भावनालाई भरिदिन्छ
तिम्रो त्यो सुन्दर मुस्कानले मेरो संसारमा उज्यालो छरिदिन्छ।
सधैँभरि तिम्रै अङ्गालोमा न्यानो भएर बसिरहुँ जस्तो लाग्छ
भनिदेऊ न तिमी, के माया भनेको यही नै हो रहेछ त ?
मेरो मनले तिमीलाई सधैँ नजिक राख्न चाहिरहन्छ
तिमी नजिक नहुँदा मेरो मन विचलित भइरहन्छ ।
तिम्रो मिठो बोलीवचन मलाई हरपल सुनिरहुँ जस्तो लाग्छ
भनिदेऊ न तिमी, के माया भनेको यही नै हो रहेछ त ?
तिमी दु:खमा पर्दा मेरो मन कति खिन्न हुन्छ
तिम्रो ओठमा मुस्कान देख्दा मेरो मन पनि प्रफुल्ल हुन्छ।
तिम्रा लागि आफ्नो ज्यानसम्म सुम्पिदिउँ जस्तो लाग्छ
भनिदेऊ न तिमी, के माया भनेको यही नै हो रहेछ त ?
तिम्री प्यारी साथी,
काजल
Growing up in a world as a living being with a lot of responsibilities held on your shoulders is hard. And being a female adds extra “spice” to it. Scientifically speaking, there are two sexes, Male and Female and those who don't fall into both of those categories use an umbrella term, genderqueer or non binary. We have different gender identity and biological gender is the sex we are assigned at birth.
Statistically, being female is harder than being a male in society. Sure there are hardships one needs to face regardless of their gender but being a female itself brings a lot of difficulties. For a long time since history, showing even a little bit of nudity is categorized as indecency. Only females are expected to learn social skills, as it is categorized "not so manly" for males to learn social skills. People still think women all belong in the kitchen. Rape cases are getting higher every year. Even home is not considered a safe place to stay. Every males acts upon a threat towards females in the society. Having to go through physical pain every once in a month because of menstruation, having everyone except a male child, having everyone to judge every one of your moves, having to take care of everyone since birth, and having to live in constant fear of getting raped, murdered or beaten is scary. Just because men couldn't handle their sexual desires many women have been raped, catcalled, objectified etc.
Recently, on Nepali TikTok page, "Saree trend" was on hype. Many females joined the trend and showed their cleavage which is perfectly fine. But some oppressed people (especially men) started blaming the creators saying that those videos were the exact reason why women get raped. They say females were desperately begging for getting raped by posting those videos. Harassing someone on the basis of clothes tehy wear is irrational. If the problem was with clothes, no women wearing clothes covering their entire body would be victims of such harassment. Constantly giving opinions on how females should know their place and not talk much is not something to be proud of. The sexes of people are supposed to be equal. The men have always dominated society with women behind them. Now this problem is slowly dissolving; some random people decide to raise a controversial internet feud regarding women’s character. In my opinion, the problem here is the people’s point of view on these things. If the people didn’t care much about how someone dresses this question wouldn’t have been raised. Of course with that being said people are supposed to dress appropriately. However, making a big deal out of girls wearing Saari in tiktok is a very petty and ignorant thing to do, especially when women are always endangered and are not safe anymore because of the lust of the people next to them.
Growing up in a society with such a cruel mindset is not easy. I personally believe that nudity or modesty doesn't define decency. Whatever one is comfortable with, defines their decency. Clothes should cover up your whole body, don't give men chances, don't walk outside alone especially during night, don't forget your place, etc are the things I have been hearing since little by people around me. I understand that they are trying to ensure our safety but it would have been better and more convenient only if men were taught about respect, personal space, and manners.
