UK climber heads home as Nepal probes 'illegal' video call

KOSH RAJ KOIRALA
KATHMANDU, May 25: Even as the government starts investigating the ´illegal´ video call that British climber Daniel Thomas Hughes made from the top of Mount Everest, it has come to light that he already left Nepal on Wednesday.

Officials at Summit Nepal Trekking Pvt Ltd, a local partner of the UK-based Jagged Globe Everest Expedition 2013, said Hughes, along with two colleagues, left for home after arriving in Kathmandu from Base Camp via helicopter, Wednesday. Shortly after landing at the Domestic Terminal at about 4 p.m., they went directly to Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) to catch their flight home. [More]

  PROFILE MITHILA SHARMA: Her dancing feats  
  BY NISTHA RAYAMAJHI  
 
As dusk slowly approaches and a day’s hectic schedule comes to an end, she makes her way home to Dhobighat, Lalitpur. Mithila Sharma is just back after a rigorous choreography session with a group of 400 Armed Police Force personnel for the upcoming Republic day event. But she doesn’t look a bit tired. Dressed in a kurtha and her hair in a braid, her gleaming expressive eyes still holds the same charm and her beauty is mesmerizing.

The wall on the passage that leads to her living room is full of awards and certificates that stand testimony to her achievements. She is the recipient of Gorkha Dakshin Bahu, Siksha Padak, First Television Actress Award among many other honors. But if there’s one thing that has propelled Sharma to stardom, it’s her determination. With more than hundred movies and countless numbers of serials and stage shows to her credit, she has carved her niche in field of dance and acting.
