Kazi Raut of Jhapa rural municipality-7 is serving not profit by 'serving' healthy food to common consumers. He has 'Kazi Khaja Shop' near Deran on Damak-6 Beldangi Road. From this shop in Chitikk, he is regularly serving healthy lunch to the customers.

However, in the past, his shop also used to have masham, chowmin, thukpa, noodles and coke, fanta, and sprites on the menu just like a normal snack shop or hotel. Now junk food is completely prohibited in his shop.

is on the lunch menu, millet and buckwheat bread, mohi, gram and barley satu, sprouted bean chutney and hemp tea. While selling junk food snacks in the past, one day Kazi thought, "Such inedible snacks will adversely affect the health of consumers as well as themselves." Finally, three years ago, he gradually removed junk food from the store. It was completely removed from last May.

'It took time to change the taste of customers who have been eating chowmin,' said Kazi, 'now most of the customers have left junk food and are attracted to Raithane.' For selling poison'. When he realized that he was being victimized by the poison sold to others, he hatched a plan to ban junk food. The plan was made three years ago. Removed Coke, Fenta, Masham,' added Kazi, 'chowmin and noodles remained. That too has gone now.' Raithane started selling only snacks from 2081.

In the beginning, Anta started selling dry bread. Customers started drooling over the bread. Then he brought millet, fapar instead of mud. Mohi added, millet along with tusa-ripened vegetables, phapar roti and gundruk chutney were also included. And the price was set, 50 rupees. They also started gram and barley satu, maize rice. Sprouted pulses & nbsp; fenugreek, mung dal, chickpeas, mountain banana chutney. "There was a fear that business would drop after Raithane started lunch," said Kazi, "but the business has increased threefold than before."

Kazi's shop is crowded from morning till night. He often sees a crowd of health-conscious customers. "Getting a healthy lunch for 50 rupees is a great thing," said Kaman Dewan, a regular customer, "Saving money and improving your health." The campaign he started in Damak was not limited only to the district. It has started spreading outside the district as well. The attraction of customers towards Raithane Khaja Shops has increased rapidly in cities like Shanishchre, Birtamod, Surunga and Urlabari in Morang. "I believe that basic products should be promoted," he added, "this will help common consumers to become healthy along with the promotion of our Raithane products." 'If you can only do this, the children's health will not have immediate problems.' People who come here are not looking for coke, even fanta, they ask for mohi. Kazi is helped by his wife and daughter in the shop. "We are satisfied to be able to serve pure and healthy food to our customers at home," says Kazi, "what more could you want?"
