The stuffs he uses are   mainly Styrofoam packaging (the white one's you get in a naya electronics box), modeling clay for the Garuda and the Lions, aluminuim foil, thin electrical wires and a few cardboard pieces, chamal ko bora(jute sack) to create the brick-tiled texture of the ground for the base.

CNN-IBN disseminates fake story of India’s land grab by Nepal, Clear media bias

I was reading some news related Nepal on news.google.com and I came to see this article that was quite interesting. It was relating a news in CNN-IBN an indian news channel that published (broadcasted ) a news saying ' India’s land grab by Nepal '.

The article was quite Long. You can read the Full article here . But the part that impressed me was :

"It was some 240 years back Nepal used to be ruled by expansionist (certain interested quarters prefer to take the  great king Prithivi-the unifier of Nepal-this way) King Prithivi Naryan Shah, now that we have leaders who are willing to sell their motherland for the sake of elusive peace and constitution, such stories could simply be ridiculed, commented another blogger."

Malai truth k ho bhanne ta tha chaina, but i wanted you all to know whats going on between Nepal and India, and what Indian media is trying to prove read this.

Here is the original article by the Indian media and below is the video for it. If this news is not a publicity action for Indian media , but a truth; they now see the pain of loosing something that we have been , for a long period.
