“Bajura has received very little rain recently. As a result, crop yields have decreased. The crops that had been sown after months of hard work were insufficient to feed the entire year. Too many people have moved from villages to other places. In the villages, hospitals and schools are very far away. That's why I couldn't study during my childhood. I was unable to receive treatment in my old age. Another reason I moved to Kathmandu was to secure my grandchildren’s future and provide them with a quality education. I wish my granddaughter would study, become a doctor and establish a hospital in the village so that people do not have to travel far for treatment.”
