Patriotim is a feeling for one’s own country. Many people associate patriotism with love for the land in which they are born, brought up, or currently live. The purpose of this study is to examine how the pragmatic and practical sense of patriotic qualities arises in the characters who are surrounded by plenty of challenges and setbacks. Even the characters coming from the common walks of life happen to display heroic disposition. The confrontation between setbacks and people from the normal spheres of life gives birth to heroism.

It is to his credit that he has written about what he knows and not attempted to include many different aspects of Nepal.Item Position and Problem of Women Participating In Print Communication Media(Department of Population Studies, 2006) Upadhyaya, Ashok BhaktaThis study is about "position and problem of women participation in print communication media" in Kathmandu valley.
