Mar 11, Kathmandu- Chairman of CPN-UML and former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has said that Nepal is a land of savants but its history is being hidden.

He said that the original knowledge that originated in Nepal has been overshadowed by the influence of western education. He has expressed his displeasure that Nepal is interpreted as a country of brave men only. It is also a land of scholars in history. In the future, it will be the land of scholars," President Oli said.

President Oli made this comment during the foundation stone laying ceremony of a college in Kathmandu. In this process, he also claimed that there are no other scholars as many as the ancestors of Nepal. He said that it is necessary to explain to Nepalese about them giving examples of 'Veda Vyas', Rishi Vishwamitra, Kapilmuni Gautam Buddha, Panini. "Nepalese are only called brave, but not only brave, but Nepalese are also scholars.

There is no scholar like our forefathers. Ved Vyas was from Tanahun, Rishi Vishwamitra, the pioneer of the philosophy behind Shiva, Vishwamitra lived on the banks of the Koshi. Kapilmuni was from Kapilvastu, he was a scholar of Samkhya philosophy and Shivayoga. 2600 years ago Buddha was in Rupandehi. Panini was from Arghakhanchi. Many such scholars are from here, but they are trying to cover it up," said Oli.
