[Itpolicy-np] a great news/ Makawanpur-Dolkha Network Plan

[Pavan S Shakya]

Thank you Rajendraji for your inspiring words which made me remember few 
lines of a famous rastriya geet :

Arka ko bharma bachnu parchha paurakh nahunale
Ma ta jhilke afai bachchhu Nepali hunale
Sagarmatha mero seer ko topi bhaidinale

HAMI NEPALI, HAMRO NEPAL, JAI HOS NEPAL

On behalf of ISPAN and myself, I am ready to work shoulder-to-shoulder with 
Mahabir Dai and ENDR team.

Subha bihani
