Journalist Balgopal Upadhyay, who participated in the parade, said that with the increase in the number of Nepalis, Nepalis have started to play an important role in such programs organized by the government. "This is not only helping us to participate in such programs, but also to have access to the local community and politics here." The indigenous people here have been boycotting this day, taking it as a day of encroachment on their land.
