Behind the beauty of the Himalayas was a hidden scam. 🚁

This fraud didn’t end in 2018 like officials claimed it kept going… and even grew bigger. Now, arrests in 2026 have reopened old cases and exposed how deep the network went.

काठमाडौँ उपत्यका देव–देवीहरूले टेक्दै हिँडेको प्राचीन भूमि हो जहाँ हरेक गल्ली, नदी र डाँडामा कुनै न कुनै कथा बाँचेको छ। शताब्दीौँ बितिसक्दा पनि, देवताहरूले कहिल्यै छाडेर नगएका ती कर्म र आस्थाहरू आज पनि साधारण नेपाली जनजीवनमा जस्ताको तस्तै जीवित छन्।
यस्तै एउटा जीवित परम्परा हो स्वस्थानी व्रत।

कथनअनुसार, भगवान विष्णु स्वयंले स्वस्थानी व्रत पूरा गर्न काठमाडौँ उपत्यकाका विभिन्न पवित्र स्थलहरूमा विचरण गर्नुभएको थियो। उपत्यकाका नदीकिनार, तीर्थ र वनप्रान्त हुँदै उहाँको यात्रा केवल व्रतको अनुष्ठान मात्र होइन, धर्म, संयम र भक्तिको प्रतीक थियो।

आज पनि, त्यही देवकालीन परम्परालाई पछ्याउँदै, साधारण भक्तजनहरू उही मार्ग, उही विधि र उही श्रद्धाका साथ स्वस्थानी व्रत पालन गर्छन्।
देवताले सुरु गरेको आस्थाको यात्रा, आज मानिसको जीवनमा निरन्तर बगिरहेको छ—काठमाडौँको माटोमा लेखिएको, समयले मेट्न नसकेको कथा जस्तै।
