Nepal, the Himalayan paradise, is in turmoil. From burning palaces to protests against political leadership, what’s driving the unrest? In this episode of the Chakravyuh Podcast, Lt. Gen. Rakesh Sharma, former Adjutant General of the Indian Army and Colonel of the 11 Gurkha Rifles, joins us to explore Nepal’s crisis and the deep civilizational bond between India and Nepal. From Lord Ram’s wisdom in the Ramayana ("Janani Janmabhoomishcha Swargadapi Gariyasi") to the shared valor of Gurkha soldiers, we discuss how India and Nepal are one culturally and emotionally. Can this bond help Nepal overcome its challenges? How can India support its neighbor without external forces like China or Pakistan exploiting the situation? Watch to find out!
