The culture of drinking tea has grown rapidly in Kathmandu since recent years. Even with only different types of tea in the menu, they have started running the business with fun. For connoisseurs, it seems that such tea hubs are becoming a place of confusion.

Subas Sharma of Andhikhola rural municipality-5 of Syangja had a determination from his childhood to do some elam in the country. As a result, at the age of 24, he started selling tea in Pokhara 5 years ago under the name Teadani. At that time, Subas was worried about his career after completing his graduation. Having seen many young people like him from the village go abroad, he has no plans to go abroad. I was thinking about what to do after reading

. Many thoughts came to mind. A man said he had to go abroad. I thought in another way, that I should do something in Nepal,' added Suwas, a tea connoisseur himself, 'I thought that it would be good to sell tea in Pokhara with a general investment, while at that time I did not know that a separate shop had been opened in Pokhara to sell only tea.' After becoming popular among customers, Suwas changed his mind about going abroad. Instead, he thought of spreading this business.

After starting to sell tea in different flavors, Suvas's teapots became famous among customers of all age groups. After the business began to run better than expected, he opened a new branch of teahouse in Chitwan 4 years ago. From January last year, he thought of expanding it to Kathmandu.

Just two months ago, 25-year-old KP Khanal from Ramaroshan rural municipality-4 Batulasen of Achham opened the latest branch of the teahouse in collaboration with the bottom of Shankhamul. Subas and KP are currently here brewing tea themselves and tasting it to connoisseurs. Every day there is a crowd of people who come to drink tea in a peaceful and homely environment. Coming to the teapot and sipping tea, Suwas thinks about his own situation 5 years ago when he listens to the gossip of the youths who are waiting abroad saying that there is no job in the country and no working environment.

A teapot operated by two youths Youths KP and Suwas are serving tea to 1,500 people every day at a tea house in Kathmandu. Not only are they selling tea, they are also providing employment to 19 youths. KP is also a social activist. He has been working in the field of sanitation for a long time. His parents from a normal family are still in India for work.

KP, who is making his mark through the social campaign of cleanliness, says that the thought of doing some business for earning money is in the teapot. Distortion has increased in the name of social activists. Actors are not employees. I met Subas dai when I thought I should have my own business,' said KP, 'Dai was already doing tea business in Pokhara and Chitwan. After meeting him, we decided to start a business in Kathmandu as well.'

KP was known as a child journalist in Tikapur 10 years ago. Then he came to Kathmandu during his studies. After living in Kathmandu, he joined Nepal Commerce Campus in Meen Bhavan. And along with his studies, he also started cleaning campaigns like 'I change, my country changes', and 'Clean Kasthamandap'. During the campaign, thousands of youth, politicians, and businessmen were supported. The number of those who came to the streets and helped in the clean-up was increasing. Continuing his campaign, KP, who is engaged in business, says, "Nothing can be done in Nepal, the youth is going abroad as the last option is abroad." If you want to do something, there are good opportunities in the country too.' 

KP does not agree with the argument that business cannot be done when the economic situation is weak. He says, 'My parents still work in India. With the help of family, I took a loan from the bank to run this business. Now we have invested more than 5 million. More than 1200 people visit us in a day. The income is also good.' 

Subas said that around 35 people have been employed by the tea business in Kathmandu, Pokhara and Chitwan. I make tea myself in a teapot in Kathmandu. I emphasize that delicious tea should be made. Kathmandu is going better than expected," he said.

He said that there are plans to open branches of tea shops in other parts of the country in the future. "We are always ready to cooperate with those who want to live in the country and do business," Subas adds, "abroad is not the only option, if you put your mind to it, you can do many things in Nepal." We look forward to welcoming young people to collaborate with us.'
