हाम्रो देश हाम्रो दाइत्व ।। Sohrakhutee Cleaning

Cheers to All Of Us  13 Aug 2011

Well, I think we did a great job. We cleaned the pillars, level the floor the work surely was tougher then we originally planed. We surely should be proud our self. But the work is not finished yet. More works to be done, I see is clean walls and paint. Also, make sure it stays clean. I also don't have any idea how could we could clean the roof.(any ideas???)

I truly learned many things from this experience and hope you all did too. We really were less prepared, but the club really help by providing shovels, and thanx Stuti Basnyet dd for the brushes. I really missed the video camera today, sharing our experience surely would have motivate others to do the same.

The local clubs seems to be interested to join hands so we need to talk to them, and make clear how they really can help or what way type of help. They are truly the ones that can maintain it, hope we could arrange some flooring materials from them.So planning to talk to talk with local clubs, ward office,kmc and the college within this week. (If you are interested to join the meeting post below).

Let's try building up the feeling "हाम्रो देश हाम्रो दाइत्व "
P.S: If you clicked some photos or videos plz share it in the group. And please write write your feeling good or bad here.

Updates Sorakhutte Cleanup Program - 11th August 2011:


Trying to build up a local support for the program : 
1) Talked with the Ward Secretary. They were very glad we were doing the program. Also present were the members of society and they were interested in helping. If we can clean and paint they will provide budget for fixing the roof. They asked for a official meeting from our side in there office where we could talk to the community members. 
2) I had meet with traffic voluntary(Jayaprakash) who was member in building the temple and he was interested to be there.
3) Besides that Thamel Club Secretary said he will support with 5 jars of waters, and have asked Thamel Tourism Board Members to there, they have promised to put it on there meeting today. I am trying to contact Guthi Memebers of the community, could not contact Naresh Prasad Shrestha sir he was not there in office.

UPDATES Sorakhute Cleaning - 10th August 2011:


Well, i couldn't visit the ward office today reached there after 5, the office was closed. It seemed Sorakhutee needs more than cleaning the pillars. The roof was लेउ लागेको and cracked in few places. The floor too was not flat. Well we will not be able to manage all the finance, for the first time but lets start with small cleaning the pillar and coloring it. Stuti Basnyet didi have said we could reuse the brushes used at Bagmati. Sorakhute pillars seems to have lack of love and care. It has historical meaning but many ppl pass it daily don't even know it exist. Temple side by was getting reconstructed too hope they could help with the flooring. So i am planning to meet the head of the temple reconstruction committee hoping to get some support. Also will need to talk to the Guthi responsible for 16 khute too, well not necessary for cleaning but for more .. it's required. Sorry couldn't add photos due to lack of camera but Mahendra Gurung will post them tomorrow. Please people i would like to have your feedback.
