Thank you for all your response, we have a few details regarding the program to share with you.
First of all, I would like to thank everyone for the massive quick response to volunteer and perform at the event. We are still looking for more volunteers and performers who can perform poetry, stand-ups, mimicry, etc.
Our very talented and Nepali Patshala's lead teacher Keshav Sapkota dai has worked really hard to put this website together, The least we can do is visit it and provide him some good comments.
