According to a press release issued here today from Bichchalit Bartaman Organising Committee, the main aim of the programme is to express their feeling towards the chaotic situation going on in the country.
On August 17, the first Bichchalit Bartaman was organised at Basantapur Durbar Square in which 18 organisations participated.
Govinda Bartaman is the quintessential Kathmandu leftist: versed in all cryptic aspects of Nepali politics, passionate about its obscurantist splits, given to vague ego tussels with fellow leftists, typically a moody poet and a down-to-earth journalist.
Bartamans Liwang is chockablock with shifty now-you-see-them-now-you-dont guerrillas, harrowed government officials, keen reporters and human rights workers, and chipper DFID consultants assessing the conflicts impact.
As Bartaman moves from Liwang to its outlying villages, and then onto Nepalganj, Dhangadi, and back to Baglung, he meets war victims one after another.
