Creating awareness through youths is the most effective way of addressing problems of the so the society and the country as a whole. Arthalaya did just that for me because it made me rethink my ideas on business, economy, society, law and the government. I go out a little more knowledgeable than I was before and this is the joy I take away from arthalaya.

  by Sarita Sapkota | 02 September, 2010

  In the article 'Seven Principles of Sound Public Policy', Lawrence W. Reed stated his first principle as "Free people are not equal, and equal people are not free". Not referring to equality as the equality before law and purely taking it in a sense of material wealth, many people I know find the statement agreeable but somehow they don't like the sound of it and in a political setting like ours, its only predictable.
