ya...silence in the present context is not cool, but it seems no ones cares abt it. Why not we, each individual write the constitution i mean lets organize "Constitution Competition all around Nepal"and present the best 3 to CA n let them choose.....i think it will again take another year for them to choose among the 3 as well.......Jai Nepal

@ Neon: cool! That's the right kinda noise we can generate.
@ Pal: Argumentative noise would be the best, you know the civil ones where you don't get beaten for saying nasty but valid points and you don't hit someone with a stick because s/he has a different point of view than yours.
Constructive kinda noise ni :)

This is nice! It certainly is no more cool to stay silent...We need to nudge our 601 netaharu, we need to make some noise...we need to let them know that they cannot fool us this time...

i think that is a different kind of silence..i think here the photographer was trying to talk about breaking the silence of this culture of TOLERANCE that we have developed towards the blindfolded leaders!!

It feels so surprising sometimes, when you have that anger inside you and you want to speak against something and you look around and you think and yet there is no place you can vent your anger to.
