Tourism in Gorkha: a Proposition to Revive Tourism After Devastating Earthquakes
Tourism in Gorkha: A proposition to Revive Tourism After Devastating Earthquakes Him Lal Ghimire* Abstract Gorkha, the epicenter of devastating earthquake 2015 is one of the important tourist destinations of Nepal. Tourism is vulnerable sector that has been experiencing major crises from disasters. Nepal is one of the world’s 20 most disaster-prone countries where earthquakes are unique challenges for tourism. Nepal has to be very optimistic about the future of tourism as it has huge potentials to be the top class tourist destinations by implementing best practices and services. Gorkha tourism requires a strategy that will help manage crises and rapid recovery from the damages and losses. This paper attempts to explain tourism potentials of Gorkha, analyze the impacts of devastating earthquakes on tourism and outline guidelines to revive tourism in Gorkha. Key words: Disasters. challenges, strategies, planning, mitigation, positive return. Background Gorkha is one of the important tourist destinations in Nepal. Despite its natural beauty, historical and religious importance, diverse culture, very close from the capital city Kathmandu and other important touristic destinations Pokhara and Chitwan, tourism in Gorkha could not have been developed expressively. Gorkha was the epicenter of 7.8 earthquake on April 25, 2015 in Nepal that damaged or destroyed the tourism products and tourism activities were largely affected. Tourism is an expanding worldwide phenomenon, and has been observed that by the next century, tourism will be the single largest industry in the world. Today, tourism is also the subject of great media attention (Ghimire, 2014:98). Tourism industry, arguably one of the most important sources of income and foreign exchange, is growing rapidly. -

“LIMBUWAN IS OUR HOME-LAND, NEPAL IS OUR COUNTRY”: HISTORY, TERRITORY, AND IDENTITY IN LIMBUWAN’S MOVEMENT A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Dambar Dhoj Chemjong December 2017 © 2017 Dambar Dhoj Chemjong “LIMBUWAN IS OUR HOME, NEPAL IS OUR COUNTRY”: HISTORY, TERRITORY, AND IDENTITY IN LIMBUWAN’S MOVEMENT Dambar Dhoj Chemjong, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 This dissertation investigates identity politics in Nepal and collective identities by studying the ancestral history, territory, and place-naming of Limbus in east Nepal. This dissertation juxtaposes political movements waged by Limbu indigenous people with the Nepali state makers, especially aryan Hindu ruling caste groups. This study examines the indigenous people’s history, particularly the history of war against conquerors, as a resource for political movements today, thereby illustrating the link between ancestral pasts and present day political relationships. Ethnographically, this dissertation highlights the resurrection of ancestral war heroes and invokes war scenes from the past as sources of inspiration for people living today, thereby demonstrating that people make their own history under given circumstances. On the basis of ethnographic examples that speak about the Limbus’ imagination and political movements vis-à-vis the Limbuwan’s history, it is argued in this dissertation that there can not be a singular history of Nepal. Rather there are multiple histories in Nepal, given that the people themselves are producers of their own history. Based on ethnographic data, this dissertation also aims to debunk the received understanding across Nepal that the history of Nepal was built by Kings. -

Chapter 5 Recovery and Development of Regional Economy
Gorkha District BBB Rehabilitation and Recovery Plan 2073/74–2082/2083 CHAPTER 5 RECOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL ECONOMY 5.1 Introduction Recovery of the agricultural sector is mainly composed of the reconstruction of agriculture related facilities such as warehouses and food processing facilities, and the improvement of farming such as improved seed and vegetable growing . The livestock industry was also damaged due to the collapse of sheds because of the earthquake and landslides. Since livestock is a major asset for farmers in the district, compensation of the loss of assets is also a priority of the economic development sector. The Gorkha District has various tourism sources such as cultural heritages and trekking routes with beautiful landscapes. Transportation to these sites and trekking trails were damaged by the earthquake and landslides including Manaslu circuit. After the urgent recovery, integrated tourism planning is essential for future economic growth. People engaging in cottage the industry lost their source of livelihood because their workplaces were at their homes which were built using low masonry structures. Providing new employment opportunities to the affected population should be prioritized. Summary: Policies for Recovery and Development of Regional Economy Policy Programme Project Recovery and Recovery and Promotion of Agricultural buildings and infrastructure recovery Development Agriculture Revitalization of agricultural activities of Regional Agricultural training for farmers Economy Agricultural logistics and supply chain development Recovery and Promotion of Tourism infrastructure rehabilitation and Tourism development Revitalize Community Based Tourism Tourism resources development HRD for tourism sector Recovery of Trade and Other Recovery and Promotion of Small industry Industry HRD and job creation on small and cottage Industry 5.2 Recovery and Promotion of Agriculture The damage to agriculture deprived a majority of the population of an income source. -
An Ethnohistory of the Temple Trust of Manakamana in Nepal
Sovereignty and Honours as a Redistributive Process: An ethnohistory of the temple trust of Manakamana in Nepal Tone Bleie and Lok Bhattarai Introduction In the late eighteenth century, as the British East India Company expanded and consolidated its rule in most of the Indian sub-continent, an army from the small hill principality of Gorkha in the Himalayan foothills extended its rule over a geographically and culturally diversified region. In 1814 the two powers clashed in war, which ended in defeat for the Gorkhalis two years later. The peace treaty marked the end of seven decades of Gorkhali expansion and left them in charge of somewhat reduced but still large territories in the Tarai, the hills and the high mountain region. Ever since, Nepal has been a sovereign state, conceived by its own rulers as the only true Hindu kingdom, unspoiled by Western and Muslim invaders. Its physical barriers, the mist-shrouded Himalayan peaks and the lush tropical forests created natural borders with India and China that have inspired the Western popular image of this Hindu kingdom as living in splendid isolation from both British colonialism and the globalising economic market system. Our article1 looks at a hitherto unexplored aspect of this kingdom – how one mountain temple and its surrounding locale, by then called Kaphyāk,2 played an essential role in the nation-building process during the period of expansion and later. In the ethnographic and historical research on Nepal, emphasis has been placed on temple architecture, temple economics and temple ritual, but without viewing the temple as an institutional whole.3 The Manakamana (Manakāmanā) temple’s historical role up until now is largely undocumented. -
