FEEDBACK: This Campaign is CHUGGING along!

A small account from one of the picketeers yesterday shows how this continual PRESSURE campaign is having its positive effects! Read on....

"When my friend & me reached Bagmati bridge at 5:30 yesterday - we saw just two people standing with one small flag - our first reaction - Oh S***! Again it's gonna be 10 or 15 of us! By the time we parked the mobike & came - we were about 6 of... us - but we were on the other bridge! Among six of us, we knew two of them - so we said 'Hello' &... shook hands - two others were new faces - so we didn't!

That was wrong - we R all fighting for same cause - we need to have our own greeting gesture (do namaste & say Jai Nagarik) & regardless of whether we know someone or not - if we see a new face - we need to acknowledge & welcome another fellow citizen with open arms! We are together in this - must give new comers a warm welcome & immediately make them feel a part of the Facebook movement!!

One more obsevation - after talking to Suman - I went to ask a Traffic Cop on duty whether we could occupy the traffic islands & stay there - for more visibility - spread more awareness!

Most surprizing - I didn't have to spend much time to explain who we were! The Cop knew "Tapai Haru Facebook Wala Hoina? Malai Thaha Cha - Tara Mero Hakim Lai Sodhanu Parcha!

He was very positive - took the trouble - explained to his superior & got her over to where I was to talk to me! She was a one star Traffic ASI with a hand set - I felt - Oof! Now she will talk to her superior & it's gonna be a long process!

To my suprise - even she was aware of us "Tapai Haru Facebook group Nara Bajhe Gardaina - Malai Thaha Cha - Huncha Heyha Basnush Tara Road Ma Aauna Chahi Paidaina! Aaunush Baashe Huncha!

At that moment I felt - it's happening - we are towards the right direction - we are heading the right way! Jai Des Jai Nagarik"
