We have been talking. writing, doing numerous activities for the inclusiveness of Janajatis into the mainstream of national politics and state machinery. Lot have already been accomplished and many are still far away. The relentless efforts will ultimately bring results. But only wishing will not suffice. We should not be passive in the change process. We shall have to work hard to bring changes. Hard working is still a lot far away from our agenda. I was wondering whether we (Magar Studies Center) should include other jati and janajatis in our area of concern. So that it becomes a center for the research and studies of the history, culture, socioeconomic issues of the people of Nepal- not only of Magar. This has become necessary in the light of the broad vision that is to be envisioned than be limited to a very limited scope of studies. If we have to look for anything related to Magar we have to go through the whole list of literature written and available on Nepal and Nepali. If it is so then why not include other jat-jatis (castes).
