By No Author
KATHMANDU, May 29: Journalist Yubaraj Ghimire’s collection of articles was released on Wednesday at the Pairavi Publication’s stall at the 17th Book and Education Fair in Bhrikutimandap. Titled ‘Shunya Samaya’, the compilation of 63 articles he wrote within the past 10 years, was selected and published by Orchid Books.



“The publishers took the initiative of bringing this book. Frankly, I wasn’t sure how relevant it would be in the current times, but I’m happy,” said Ghimire who was engaged with signing copies of his new release at the venue. [break]



Ghimire, who is a columnist with the Indian Express, shares, “When I started writing for Indian Express, the column I wrote was titled ‘Zero Hour’, which translates to Shunya Samaya in Nepali.” Ghimire derived this title in reference to the zero hour in the parliament which is an important time in which members can raise any public issue without any prior notice.



“I hope that, through the book, I’ve been able to raise issues which are closer to the people in Nepal,” said Ghimire.

Shunya Samaya is priced at Rs 335.
