My longest mobile call(1:26:28)
on 26th December 2011, received a missed call of a youth from Delhi and I confused with his same named worker from Ranchi who had to be explained about some photographs for calendar 2012 by Jharkhand Maihtili manch .
who was insistent on the training of Mithilakshar which we impart one session in the Maithili workers' Training camp.
I explained him it was on our priority as we feel Devnagari was also ok for Maihtili and Mithila was our goal.
As his call had came when I was offering my puja and then was to start for camp I did spoke in not so polite words and when I was searching the number of call of the widow of Markandey Pravasi who had come to reside Ranchi with her journalist daughter. I had some other nuber which could not be saved as sim was already full.
When on 28th evening I tried a number it was from the same energetic youth who had met me some 12-15 years back when I had gone to his father’s place.
We talked a lot on Mithilakshar, Maithili and Mithila and on problems our organization is unduly facing by outsider and insiders .
I advised him to have some membership on which any organization is structured but he was not ready to ask money for that, even as cheque or transfer to bank.
I told him that then he needed deep consideration as any worker cannot have that attitude- he should collect money, spend money and present account(and that is problem AMP is facing with some on which we are very rigid.
When I reached my hose late night (around 9 pm), a worker from Godda was coming out and he said that such long talk was not good from health point(I also remembered about its correlation with brain tumour though before that I was thinking that I would have to pay big bill only and that I took too much of workers’ time, must be his battery exhausted like mine which needed several hours to be full again).
Fearing from tumour and or bill, I decided not to call till jan.1(when unnecessarily I would be greeted when I do not consider my New Near Jan.1.
I had asked workers too be choosy in their words in the training camp but here I was myself at fault

113th Mithila Jagaran yatra- Godda
113th Mithila Jagaran yatra- Godda -
On 6th December 2011 morning, I had to take early morning bus for Godda and despite I planned to have puja there I did not sleep much and around 4 am I was awoke and till Pravin was awoke I finished my bath and Puja in a chilly weather.
At bus stop Rupesh left me in High_tech bus which started before Praveen and Ranjeet could come and soon I felt urge of seeing my bag’s mouth to avoid slippage and then again for a shawl that the side seated person objects- resulting my protest that those had sufficient cause to give him inconvenience. Usually the little educated, so-called some developed persons have amazing strokes of the convinences.
Anyway in the most of the way I was sleeping and reached Bhagalpur .
There soon I got other bus for Godda and journey was a convenient one. For sometime in the way I watched and videoed the procession of Muharram like last year I had at Benipatti area.
The chanda collection by youth is same like that of Hindu boys on Saraswati Puja.
Godda Yatra
Crossing Biha-Jharkhand gate at Panjwara, I felt it should be demolished as both were in Mithila and Mithila Jharkhand boundry needs redrawn.
While in the way of Godda I crossed Dumaria village of Sanjesh Mohan where I had some visits(5.9.2003) and then several times- 2004

There was atime in 2004 when JD(U) was offering me a Loksabha Ticket from Godda and I was about to tender VRS that in the precding night the party of Ramdayal Munda and Soorasj mandal meged in JD(U) and my ticket was cancelled in favour of Sooraj mandal- He did not win and Muda sided to Congress later. The socialists do not know the workers and are always loosing grounds. I might have won in htat triangle( with Yadav and a Muslim) I divulged in the Vidyapati Bhavan in that afternoon in a meeting arranged by Sarvjeet Jha who has a large collection of news cuttings of his work in different fields which I suggested a classification.
While going to meeting I was introduced to a freedom fighter Maheshwar Jha and I intervieved him . He had been in 1942 movement and later studied and retired as a govt. servant, rarely such thing is seen.
With him I visited Jagdamba temple before Vidaypati Bhavan where he blessed us for Mithila state and demanded Maithili’s second language status in Jharkhand also.
The meeting decided to have a state level conference on January 24, 2012 for Second language struggle.
I took a bus for Jasidih and seeing Hansdiha and other area in the way was again at Babanagari but crossed that without a stop- you can see Him only if He gives you a chance!
At Jasidih I was for long to take my train Patliputra express where I had no reservation and only at Bokaro I could get space to sleep.

मिह्तिला जागरण यात्रा ११४ फारबिसगंज अवं पटना
Mithila Jagaran yatra 114_Forbesganj & as Appendix_ Patna
This Yatra was intended primarily for the Vidyapati parv, Biratnagar I described yesterday but going to Patna was for Sagar raati deep jaray(alredy mailed my comments) and for the executive committee of the AMP.
From Biratnagar,with LN Meht, ex-MLA, I had decided to return to Forbesganj . Shri Sukhdeo paswan ex-MP, Araria was also to return and Mehta preferred to return in Sukhdeoji’s car and in Mehta’s car I was with a Sikh Ranjit Singh. I talked about the wrong notion with ,Hindu Muslim Sikh Isaai,’ sab bhai-bhai when Sikhs are Hindus only.
At Subhash Chowk LN Mehta came in his car and went to drop me to my home opposite post office where I had been again 2 minutes just to meet caretaker widow Brahmani and could see the top of the late father’s room was dismantled and needed in fact reconstruction.
Mehtaji was with me and I suggested for the next Antarrashtriy maithili sammelan at my home where a school ran but he said that he would provide sarvajanik Pustakalaya building and campus which will be better. Sudhirnath Mishra also talked him on this issue when I went with him to his house and had bath and puja due since morning. After heavy dahi-rosugullah food was not required but from a Maihtil’s house a guest cannot come without food. Thankfully I had simple food. Mehtaji went in his car to see off me to Forbesganj station. I took a ticket to Patna junction and enquired from the TTE for a berth but chart would have been with the TTE from Jogbani and I preferred to enter the coach and could get upper space to even sleep though there was a rush of migrant labours to Punjab and many young to Patna for various work. After Araria many young persons came and two came to sit near my legs and somehow I could complete my journey. At the evening I had phoned some 5-6 persons for my Patna programme bit surprisingly none replied. Among them two(Shailendra singh and Nagendraji ) replied when at Patna junction I had already my bath and puja. I had just spread my towel and had a premonition that anyone might take that and lo just when I was about to start a Cooley took that. I went chided him for that and took back and then gave it to that with an internal pleasant mood that I would not require to take that wet cloath and somebody would use. However the attachment of a person is with such things that one wants to preserve each and every thing.
I came out and went to Mahavir Temple and had a pooja there.
I took auto and reached Novelty & Co. where Narendra Jha was waiting for me for my write up related to some maithili organization. He is a smoker and I cannot stand by that and when he started smoking I took leave to meet Dr. Narendra Prasad, surgeon and we had a long talk. I presented him a copy of my Gita in Maihtili and gave him a profile of Neha(Chitra’s friend) for forwarding that to his Chitragupt group(finding a groom for 5’8” is diffivcult inm any community).
I came back to narendra babu who left me near to Patliputraputra Club where Dr. samrendra Jha was waiting with Dr. Vishw rattan, 2 years senior to me, a cricket of my college at darbhanga and we had a long talk on general issues.
Samrendra took me to his clinic where I talked with him for long and listened to his memoire how a doctor is not paid for his work and he too has family to rear up. There also came a Maihtil from saharsa but he too did not give him fee.
Samrendra took me to his house where his daughter Smridhhi presented food to us. Samrendra left me to co-operative fFederation Hall, near Museum for story reading night ful session (Sagar Raati Deep Jaray) and was awoke whole night there.
I boycotted that in the last strory when a Jha started abusing Vedas through his hero and derogated the great Mandan Mishra.
I went to the room there meant for us and had my bath and sandhya puja and took rest whole day.
The executive committee of the AMP meeting at Patna was fixed assuming at least 5 such participants in that literary meet but only 2 were present there( President Kamalkantji and me which could not be held due to Sudhirnathji’s son’s sudden illness and Premkantji’s missing of the Patna train. Nor does the organizers at Patna had done ground work despite their assurances. An alternative venue fixed by a new person could be communicated only in the afternoon of 11th. For the AMP it was first such occasion but in a limited membership of the attendees if most of the persons are absent, a meeting could not be held even otherwise.
I was an invitee for evening reception of a Maithil IAS’s son and daughter-in law but because the invitation card was not in maithili I preferred not to go to there and came directly to station to find my berth in the night train to get up neat Ranchi despite whole day rest and some sleep (discontinued due to phone talks with many workers and friends).
I call this as an appendix to Mithila jagaran yatra not only because I was awoke whole night with Maithili story tellers, I feel patna is just like appendix of Mihtila’s body(the capital but of no use to Mithila) and that can be cut off like the useless appendix of the body, a vestigial organ (though some use of that has been recorded but once a panic pain abdomen, it is to be removed and which more than Nithilka can record pain for each thing, a continued story of neglect.

MJY 114( Biratnagar
In brief-
Reached Bhagalpur on 9th morning(after 7-8th stopover at Ranchi was in a hanging over mood) –in the way a Barnwal of Jaina More’s .medical profession(a shop) divulged me as a doctor and was impressed by my sukhi roti and saag and invited me to come once Jaina more..
I got a bus for Purnea and reached there, on 6th a retired maithil teacher of Purnea had requested for a copy of my Maithiligita and I had asked him to be at bus stand – and he was there near starting bus for Forbesganj( he took a bundle of 50 to distribute/ sell and made me relieved of heavier luggage to a manageable one- at Ranchi the pressman could not reach to deliver 2000 Mihtila pamphlets needed for 21st December Delhi dharna and was probably to take my convenience).
The bus took 3 hours to cover 68 kilometer and I became angry at Araria on bus conductor and warned him of recommending cancellation of permit for undue waiting to overload bus.
I reached Forbesgan around 11 and in a trecker was for Jogbani.
Previous evening I had requested Putul Mishra for my speech at morning assembly of Mihtila Public school but seeing late had cancelled at 8 am from Purnea.
Reached Jognabi where I had been with Dr.jaikant Mishra for a Maihtili meeting though it was not held . 13.12.1994
Jogbani
Jaikantbabu sang
Jogbani is a border town and has much developed since visited there in 1994. The road and market was full of Nepali ladies in different costumes doing marketing.
In a Nepali bus I reached Biratnagar’s Bhumi Prashanshan Chowk and listened Vidyapati sangeet on loudspeakers and searching the field reached there and after many security check up(I am not a Kalam that anybody can object also) as the HE Vice President Parmanad Jha was to come.
Praveer Narayan Choudhary announced my name with reverence and as I was a well known face of the local workers all were enthused on my coming.
Biratnagar was only 20 kilometer from my home Forbesganj where I was born and had visited many times before including Maithili work and here I had for the forst time on 22nd Decembar 2000 I had spoken loudly for a Mithili state in Nepal in the presence of Jhalanath Khanal who later became Prime Minister of Nepal in recent past. 1960s

Successor of Khanal, Baburam Bhattarai had sent Ramrijhan Yadav, his media advisor with his long welcome speech. Ramrijhan has been AMP’s worker and when he came to me I told him that in AMP it was known to him that secretaries are changed after 2-3 conferences and even if he would have come to jainagar a change was imminent but he remained a core group member. We do not remove any worker(unless one leaves) only we change his working profile.
Rambharosh Kapri, the dioyen of Maihtil work greeted me and so was there Baijuji, my kutumb who gave a long speech (and he is a mass leader of his locality of Darbhanga). It was good that he did not utter there for Sugauli Treaty’s undone as was his habit.
After his long speech, I was asked to say and briefly I said
1. Congratulated VP and Matrika yadav for their stand on oath taking (other than Nepali in Hindi and Maithili)
2. Birat’s place make us reverent alike Nepali Hindus too and hence I wished Maihtil people not to be antagonistic to Nepali speaking Hindus(and there were Nepali speaker like great litterateur Bhanubhankt Pokhrail who thought his luck his book released on Vidaypati’s day and Mahesh Regmi)
3. A separate state of Mithili in Nepal wihout interfering international boundary(I promised the VP saying some splinter group’s dissent not Sugauli need not be taken seriously as the view of the AMP was binding on almost all Maithils).
4. Remembered Vidyapati who had written Debur bhangi Masid Bnadhi and that majority Hindus are making both countries secular be noted.
HE VP parmanad Jha spoke like a great leader of Mithila, a great son of Mithila and said Vidaypati’s birthplace was in India but work place in Nepal’s Banuli state and hence [postal stamp on him, naming of Tarai Highway on him, a corpus of Rs. 10 million on his name and so many things but asked to work for inclusion of Maithili in Nepal Lok Seva Ayog.
Many speakers, including Sukhdev paswan, ex MP from Araria and LN Mehata ex MP from Fornesganj from India spoke in favour of a Mithila state in India and so many gallantries of Nepal- Karuna Jha, loan lady on dais asked Mithila on the geographical map, (to be continued)..
Later I congratulated HE VP , Nepal as he spoke so clearly on many terms which politicians usually avoid and in fact was of useful to be the Maithils of both countries. (I am surprised at many instances of the Indian Maithil leaders who on getting some posts are keeping silence over the issues they had been fighting).
I found Nepal is in turmoil and they are more conscious for their number and position than Indian counterparts who are almost sleeping at the time of censuses.
MP of Nepal Jayshankar Yadav(names I am forgetting) put strong notes on the plight of Mithilavasis.
One of the ex-MP Mandal criticized my view of having amity with Nepali brethrens. I know they have been tortured by them but let me say again that hatred is not the answer to hatred and a divided Nepal (on the name of Madhes/ Hill) will be disastrous for Terai Maithils as well as to India . Let us hope we Maithils are strong enough in both countries that nobody can torture us and in a democratic set up we have numbers provided we are not divided amongst ourselves on the name of castes. We may have many castes we all are sanatani (Hindu) Maihtils. I did not use Hindu word with stress there but reminded that Nepal ’s king had been authourized to enter garbhgrih of Rameshwaram or Jagannathpuri. I also reminded that Golwalkar of RSS had a vow not to go abroad(and when such time came he sent Deen dayal and Atal instead) but used to go to Nepal saying that is not foreign but his home and even his disciple Vajpayee after becoming PM first went to Jankapurdham where temple is renovated by a queen from Madhya Pradesh(probably Teekamgarh but I wrongly named from Holkars’).
I exclaimed if I was born 20 km north of Forbesganj I must have been a Nepali and so what was the difference between us.
In fact I had a long discussion on facebook/ mails with Pravin Narayan Choudhary, the anchor of the function who had been submerged with anti-dowry activities of Mithila and in fact he has the ability of organizing people and invitation to me came through my brother-in law Vivekanand Jha whose anglophilic thoughts I always criticized. Some way Pravin was his fan and being invited I accepted that despite my already fixed schedule for Khagaria and Patna which I changed somehow though that made my tours quite hectic.
The exhibition of Mithila Painting was quite exotic but I was not in a mood after full day fast and without snan and puja. No sooner the inaugural function ended, I went below podium changed my dhoti(as I was feeling chill) and with bag was ready to leave with LN Mehta but he had been in the queue of food. I was requested by many but I was not accustomed to eat without bath- sandhya-tarpan, Siyaram Jha ‘saras’ insisted that curd and Rosugulla I should take- I had taken sweets anf fruits in the past without Puja many days and hence with inmitial hesitation I took as many as 16-18 rosugullas- caloriewise sufficient for the night also(thinking to have puja next day morning in spite of that chilly evening).
In the wake of the proximity from my home, Forbesganj, my journey to Biratnagar has been much less and this was after 7 years, thanks Praveen. I feel he and many more like him are true workers of Mithila though many of them are unaware of the potentiality and scope of Mithila work and the ideological foundation of such any work.
When he had uttered on mobile that workers of divergent views would not be allowed to pull up in different ways, I had difficult times to convince him that if any body or some body feel that their way or leadership is the only anathema of Mithila work how one can press on that.
Many people comment on my differences with Baidyanath Choudhary .Baijuji’ who too was invited by Praveen (was not known to me). We had only few chances to meet or share diases-(for diases it was third,
Mumbai- Mihtila darpan’s third anniversary
Darbhnaga- pardeep maithiliputra’s Deeta Awtaran mahakavy release
And chance meetings- at my younger brothers’ marriage in 1985(when I was not a Maihtili worker)
at Darbhanga in 2009 Januray , Mathura babu’s shraddha
and hand once telephonic talk in 1992 when I was at Delhi in Vijaykantji’s house and had taken his phone to convince Baijuji that all should fight unitedly.(He had differences with Vijaykantji and I was a novice entrant ot Maihtili areana).
When I incidentally saw him at Mumbai (not knowing then also that he was an invited guest there) I was scribbling through invitation postcards for the XVI Antarrashtriy maihtili Sammealn, Goa, November 2007 and was surprised to see him who has been doing his sammealana plagiarizing our name of Antarrashtriy Maihtili Sammealn; incidentally postcard for Vidyapati Seva sansthan was already written and was in the lot which I searched and giving him that I saidm”You know well that AMP is doing Antarrashtriy Maihtili Sammealns since 1993 and requested to change the name to Vishwa maithili Sammelan or not to cobfuse. He spoke so much about me in that meeting( that I was fifth saviour Thakur- after jyotirishwar, Vidayapati, Brajmohan, CP Thakurs) but did not change his samelans name(even on Dec 22-23 is organizing that at Guwahati).
Later he also added ‘Akhil Bhartiy ,’ to’ Mihtila Rajya Sangharsh Samiti.’ founded by me in 1994 of which Dr. jaykant Mishra remained president till death and and then Chunchun Mishra till death(now Dr. satyanarayan mahto is president).
At one juncture(without my knowledge, ‘antarrashtiy word was added by Chunchunji that we were from AMP which I protested that it will give wrong message of unification of both sides of Mithila which was never intended by the AMP. This year also when I reached Darbhanga on 23.11.2011, I found the word on the old banner and I protested Dr. Udayshakar Mishra and suggested to paint word antarrashtriy.
Let Baijuji explain his position on this organizational juggleries.
Regarding his stand on unification of Mithila or nullifying Sugauli Treaty, I feel it was good that he did not utter this in the presence of Nepali Maihtils and I could say vehemently that that was not intended by the AMP(though some splinter voices do come off and on and should not be taken seriously).
I hope Praveen and others should note that I have no personal difference with anyone. I am an incidental intruder in Mithila movement and if people do not like me I would be satisfied to take recourse to my other work.
If in my brief speech, I did not mention Baijuji , it was for the brevity of speech time which I myself had timed 180 seconds finding two dozen speakers on the dais and for that matter I did not address anyone except president and HE VP and that is my way of speaking to save time.
I would have loved to interact Dr. SN Jha, SN Mishra and many more who had been cordial to me in the past but I know in such a gathering everybody is short of time. I am not always dais visitor and sometime I will find time to talk to many particularly Praveen who looked lovely in ‘Lalka pag.’
I do not feel myself old but surely Mithila work is to be taken up by those who are in their 30s or 40s. They should try to understand the complexities of the problem and should not be emotive on issues. I did try my best in simplifying the things based on ground realties and ideological moorings with no intenstion for self.
At Purnea sometimes back in Pinki’s marriage a young journalist had asked me that whether I would be first CM of Mithila or will face Shiboo Soren’s ordeal. I had replied him that CM of Mithila will be among the political of Mithila. In election caste is counted and being a Brahmin I am at loss there and hence I feel once Mithila is on the map, I will take recourse of my chamber to patiens, in an institute if that I could establish just like Achary Chankay went to Gaga sides in his hermitage making Mudraraakshas as Prime Minister of Magadha.
The same journalist was asking me yesterday night about the intelligence reports of Islamic terroristst’ dens in madhubani and other districts to which I had already forcasted seeing petrodollars vicioating genuine Maithil Muslims with an intrusion from Bangladesh and communication from Nepal for weakening country- for which too Mithila needs statehood as Patna cannot control these things being distant.
Being a doctor, I am always suspicious for my long life(though my parentage had )whether I live or not MITHILA will come on map. Let Karuna Jha be assured her bold voice will not be maimed.
Reached Bhagalpur on 9th morning(after 7-8th stopover at Ranchi was in a hanging over mood) –in the way a Barnwal of Jaina More’s .medical profession(a shop) divulged me as a doctor and was impressed by my sukhi roti and saag and invited me to come once Jaina more..
I got a bus for Purnea and reached there, on 6th a retired maithil teacher of Purnea had requested for a copy of my Maithiligita and I had asked him to be at bus stand – and he was there near starting bus for Forbesganj( he took a bundle of 50 to distribute/ sell and made me relieved of heavier luggage to a manageable one- at Ranchi the pressman could not reach to deliver 2000 Mihtila pamphlets needed for 21st December Delhi dharna and was probably to take my convenience).
The bus took 3 hours to cover 68 kilometer and I became angry at Araria on bus conductor and warned him of recommending cancellation of permit for undue waiting to overload bus.
I reached Forbesgan around 11 and in a trecker was for Jogbani.
Previous evening I had requested Putul Mishra for my speech at morning assembly of Mihtila Public school but seeing late had cancelled at 8 am from Purnea.
Reached Jognabi where I had been with Dr.jaikant Mishra for a Maihtili meeting though it was not held . 13.12.1994
Jogbani
Jaikantbabu sang
Jogbani is a border town and has much developed since visited there in 1994. The road and market was full of Nepali ladies in different costumes doing marketing.
In a Nepali bus I reached Biratnagar’s Bhumi Prashanshan Chowk and listened Vidyapati sangeet on loudspeakers and searching the field reached there and after many security check up(I am not a Kalam that anybody can object also) as the HE Vice President Parmanad Jha was to come.
Praveer Narayan Choudhary announced my name with reverence and as I was a well known face of the local workers all were enthused on my coming.
Biratnagar was only 20 kilometer from my home Forbesganj where I was born and had visited many times before including Maithili work and here I had for the forst time on 22nd Decembar 2000 I had spoken loudly for a Mithili state in Nepal in the presence of Jhalanath Khanal who later became Prime Minister of Nepal in recent past. 1960s

Successor of Khanal, Baburam Bhattarai had sent Ramrijhan Yadav, his media advisor with his long welcome speech. Ramrijhan has been AMP’s worker and when he came to me I told him that in AMP it was known to him that secretaries are changed after 2-3 conferences and even if he would have come to jainagar a change was imminent but he remained a core group member. We do not remove any worker(unless one leaves) only we change his working profile.
Rambharosh Kapri, the dioyen of Maihtil work greeted me and so was there Baijuji, my kutumb who gave a long speech (and he is a mass leader of his locality of Darbhanga). It was good that he did not utter there for Sugauli Treaty’s undone as was his habit.
After his long speech, I was asked to say and briefly I said
1. Congratulated VP and Matrika yadav for their stand on oath taking (other than Nepali in Hindi and Maithili)
2. Birat’s place make us reverent alike Nepali Hindus too and hence I wished Maihtil people not to be antagonistic to Nepali speaking Hindus(and there were Nepali speaker like great litterateur Bhanubhankt Pokhrail who thought his luck his book released on Vidaypati’s day and Mahesh Regmi)
3. A separate state of Mithili in Nepal wihout interfering international boundary(I promised the VP saying some splinter group’s dissent not Sugauli need not be taken seriously as the view of the AMP was binding on almost all Maithils).
4. Remembered Vidyapati who had written Debur bhangi Masid Bnadhi and that majority Hindus are making both countries secular be noted.
HE VP parmanad Jha spoke like a great leader of Mithila, a great son of Mithila and said Vidaypati’s birthplace was in India but work place in Nepal’s Banuli state and hence [postal stamp on him, naming of Tarai Highway on him, a corpus of Rs. 10 million on his name and so many things but asked to work for inclusion of Maithili in Nepal Lok Seva Ayog.
Many speakers, including Sukhdev paswan, ex MP from Araria and LN Mehata ex MP from Fornesganj from India spoke in favour of a Mithila state in India and so many gallantries of Nepal- Karuna Jha, loan lady on dais asked Mithila on the geographical map, (to be continued)..
Later I congratulated HE VP , Nepal as he spoke so clearly on many terms which politicians usually avoid and in fact was of useful to be the Maithils of both countries. (I am surprised at many instances of the Indian Maithil leaders who on getting some posts are keeping silence over the issues they had been fighting).
I found Nepal is in turmoil and they are more conscious for their number and position than Indian counterparts who are almost sleeping at the time of censuses.
MP of Nepal Jayshankar Yadav(names I am forgetting) put strong notes on the plight of Mithilavasis.
One of the ex-MP Mandal criticized my view of having amity with Nepali brethrens. I know they have been tortured by them but let me say again that hatred is not the answer to hatred and a divided Nepal (on the name of Madhes/ Hill) will be disastrous for Terai Maithils as well as to India . Let us hope we Maithils are strong enough in both countries that nobody can torture us and in a democratic set up we have numbers provided we are not divided amongst ourselves on the name of castes. We may have many castes we all are sanatani (Hindu) Maihtils. I did not use Hindu word with stress there but reminded that Nepal ’s king had been authourized to enter garbhgrih of Rameshwaram or Jagannathpuri. I also reminded that Golwalkar of RSS had a vow not to go abroad(and when such time came he sent Deen dayal and Atal instead) but used to go to Nepal saying that is not foreign but his home and even his disciple Vajpayee after becoming PM first went to Jankapurdham where temple is renovated by a queen from Madhya Pradesh(probably Teekamgarh but I wrongly named from Holkars’).
I exclaimed if I was born 20 km north of Forbesganj I must have been a Nepali and so what was the difference between us.
In fact I had a long discussion on facebook/ mails with Pravin Narayan Choudhary, the anchor of the function who had been submerged with anti-dowry activities of Mithila and in fact he has the ability of organizing people and invitation to me came through my brother-in law Vivekanand Jha whose anglophilic thoughts I always criticized. Some way Pravin was his fan and being invited I accepted that despite my already fixed schedule for Khagaria and Patna which I changed somehow though that made my tours quite hectic.
The exhibition of Mithila Painting was quite exotic but I was not in a mood after full day fast and without snan and puja. No sooner the inaugural function ended, I went below podium changed my dhoti(as I was feeling chill) and with bag was ready to leave with LN Mehta but he had been in the queue of food. I was requested by many but I was not accustomed to eat without bath- sandhya-tarpan, Siyaram Jha ‘saras’ insisted that curd and Rosugulla I should take- I had taken sweets anf fruits in the past without Puja many days and hence with inmitial hesitation I took as many as 16-18 rosugullas- caloriewise sufficient for the night also(thinking to have puja next day morning in spite of that chilly evening).
In the wake of the proximity from my home, Forbesganj, my journey to Biratnagar has been much less and this was after 7 years, thanks Praveen. I feel he and many more like him are true workers of Mithila though many of them are unaware of the potentiality and scope of Mithila work and the ideological foundation of such any work.
When he had uttered on mobile that workers of divergent views would not be allowed to pull up in different ways, I had difficult times to convince him that if any body or some body feel that their way or leadership is the only anathema of Mithila work how one can press on that.
Many people comment on my differences with Baidyanath Choudhary .Baijuji’ who too was invited by Praveen (was not known to me). We had only few chances to meet or share diases-(for diases it was third,
Mumbai- Mihtila darpan’s third anniversary
Darbhnaga- pardeep maithiliputra’s Deeta Awtaran mahakavy release
And chance meetings- at my younger brothers’ marriage in 1985(when I was not a Maihtili worker)
at Darbhanga in 2009 Januray , Mathura babu’s shraddha
and hand once telephonic talk in 1992 when I was at Delhi in Vijaykantji’s house and had taken his phone to convince Baijuji that all should fight unitedly.(He had differences with Vijaykantji and I was a novice entrant ot Maihtili areana).

आर्य भारत के वासी हैं
Aryan invasion and colonization theory is dismantled with new researches (Ranchi express 11.7.2011)
Sir William Jones in 1772 lectured first on it and that became plank for every anti_Hindu and they pleaded Arya too came from outside like that of Muslims , Zorastians etc.
Then also Mahamahopadhyay Ganganath jha, historian Jadunath sarkar and Pune’s RG Bhandarkar ridiculed it as no word of Baltic nations(from where we were said to come India)languages were in Indian tongues.
Lokmany Tilak did further wrong when he said that we came from near north pole.
Indore ’s Wakanankar dig deep and with astro pictures proved that saraswati valley civilization was in fact Sindhu valley civilization.
Then came a theory that all human beings are the progeny of a great-great- grandamma from Ethiopia which is also dismantled in the light of new evidences.
I am sure in the end Hindu’s pristine glory will come up and among that Mithila’s position will be on the top as only in the the Shatpath Brahman Videh Madhava’s spread of Aryas to the east of Gandaki is described that is our spread from Saraswati banks and so we revere Ganga-Yyamuna and antah salila sSrasawati’s triveni at Prayagraj.
Let us be proud Hindus and this is our homeland. We are not a Bhageru in any Dharmashala( which anti-Hindus tried to prove for India ).
Of course Muslims are also Hindu Muslims as they are converted from us and are part and parcel of Indian community but they too should have proud on Ram and seta and Krishna and Radha as r Rahim or Raskhan had or as Asfakaullah or Khan Abudul gaffer Khan thought and did for Indian nation.

With profound regret
With profound regret AMP workers are informed that Shri Sudhitnath Mishra, President Mithila Party has lost his youngest son, Satyaprakash, 32yrs issueless, just married some years back. He breathed last 630 pm at PMCH. The body was taken to his native village Ramai, in Araia district and last rites would have been complete by this time there.
We all are shocked and pray Almighty to give him strength, a pillar of eastern Mithila.
