Floods dash Nepal's China trade hopes, entrench reliance on India

Exactly nothing holds them together not language and not culture. Hinduism is basically 1000 different religions put under one umbrella by the west. When the going gets tough India reverts back to the caveman days and balkanise.

I partially agree with you Without Hinduism, India would look like Pakistan: different ethnicities at each other’s throats.

Hinduism binds India’s peoples through a shared civilizational core, dharma, the epics, pilgrimage, and acceptance of multiple paths, without demanding one ethnicity, language, or rigid creed. Local identities are absorbed, not erased. This creates cohesion that supports trade, migration, and prosperity across diversity.

Nepal shows the same pattern. When it abandoned its Hindu state character for secularism, ethnic conflict and social anarchy followed. The push to restore Hindu status is a direct response to that breakdown. Shared Dharmic continuity is what holds the subcontinent’s peoples in place and allows them to prosper instead of fragment.

Nepal in talks with China to reopen Tatopani border point​

Published on: Oct 7, 2026, 11:30:44 IST

Kathmandu, Nepal is in talks with China to resume transport services through the Tatopani border point, which has remained closed following recent floods and landslides, a minister has said.

Infrastructure Development Minister Sunil Lamsal told a parliamentary committee on Tuesday that discussions were underway with Chinese officials to reopen the Tatopani trade route, which connects Nepal with Tibet.

He said the government was making continuous efforts to resume operations at both the Tatopani and Rasuwagadhi transit points along the China border.

"We are ready even now. There is no problem in operating the border point from our side. We are also in regular communications with the Chinese side. We are working on how to reopen the Rasuwagadhi border point," Lamsal said.

Lamsal also said the government was working to construct and restore infrastructure in areas affected by the recent disasters.
