Kathmandu, September 16
Journalist Ramesh Bhushal launched his debut book Chhalbato Kailash Dekhi Ganga Samma on Saturday at Nepal Academy, Kathmandu.
The book launch event also featured an interaction session with a political analyst Hari Sharma where Bhushal said that human actions have damaged nature and the environment.
“There are many other things besides humans on this earth, but humans are impacting all of them. Rivers are one of the resources being largely affected by human activity,” said Bhushal.
Published by Fineprint, Chhalbato chronicles Bhushal’s 45-day journey from Kathmandu to Kailash Mansarovar, tracing the path from the source of the Karnali River in Tibet to the Ganges in India.
“This book features the story of the river, Karnali’s natives, fellow travellers, river politics and river science,” Bhushal said during the event
