आजकोआवाज.कम: नेपालीमा गीत गाउनु हुन्छ होला नि?
प्रशान्त तामाङ: अब नेपालीको छोरो नेपालीको गीत गाएन भने त भएन नि, नेपाली गीत गाउनै पर्यो।

आजकोआवाज.कम: विश्व भरका नेपालीहरुलाई के भन्न चाहनु हुन्छ?
प्रशान्त तामाङ: म यति मात्रै भन्न चाहन्छु कि संसार भरी छरिएर बसेका नेपालीहरुले जसरी मलाई सहयोग र माया दिनु भयो एसरी नै हामी सबै जना मिलेर सबैले माया बाटौं। यसरी नै हामी अगाडि बढ्नु पर्छ। मान्छेहरुले हामीलाई चिन्दै छन्, हामी अगाडि बढ्दैछौं। यसरी नै एकता भयो भने माथि जान सकिन्छ।
तपाईंहरुले मलाई एकता र माया जसरी गर्नु भयो त्यो एकता कायमै राखौं। म त एक सुरुवात मात्र हो, सिंढी मात्रै हो। अझ हाम्रा नेपाली दाजुभाइ दिदिबहिनीहरु कति अगाडि आउनु हुन्छ, उहाँहरुको लागि एउटा यसरी नै एकता देखायौं भने अझ सफलता हाँसिल गर्न सकिन्छ।

Gangtok: The little sparks of ‘Bal Tara’ including Srijana Shilal, Srijana Chettri, Rachana Shilal, Evan Lepcha and Sonam Wangdi drew a large gathering at Titanic Park on January 15. These young contestants of ‘Bal Tara’ rendered several melodious songs in a reception of Prakriti Giri’s father Mr. Naresh Kumar Giri from Darjeeling and members of Prakriti Fan Club of Darjeeling and Kalimpong on Friday at Titanic Park. The reception was organized by Sikkim Patrakar Manch which was attended by Mr. SB Subedi, Forest Minister, as chief guest. Mr. Kuber Dahal, Director of Culture and Heritage Affairs Department, Mr. AK Girish from Power Department, Mr. Chunni Lal Ghimiray, Mr. Dharma Bhushan were among the distinguished guests present. Father of Prakriti Giri and her fans from Kalimpong and Darjeeling came to Sikkim to request the general public here to give SMS vote for Prakriti, the daughter of the hills, as they did before in making Prashant Tamang an Indian Idol.
Appealing for the vote for Prakriti Giri, Mr. Subedi said that the son of the hills Prashant Tamang was supported by each and every individual in Sikkim. Likewise our daughter of hills should also be supported by each and every one of Sikkim without any reservations.
“Prashant Tamang has created history for every individual belonging to Nepali community by depicted unity and strength of Nepalis or people of the hills and now another opportunity has come to create another history through Prakriti Giri. So it is the responsibility of each and every one from the hills to vote for her and make her victorious”, said Mr. Chunnilal Ghimiray. Prakriti’s father requested the general public of Sikkim to vote for her daughter and conveyed his gratitude to the people for the support and affection given to her daughter till date.

February 16, 2008 at 4:12 am
Appeal to all lets unite again like we did for Prashant Tamang. Let’s make it a habit.
February 16, 2008 at 4:39 am
@Barun,
Thank you for covering Prakriti Giri once again. There is no single site providing up-to-date information about her and the show so far. Even the official indya.com has not mentioned about her wild card entry yet. We have to support her seriously now. Please keep us update.
@Mahesh,
The voting page http://www.indya.com/chhoteustaad/vote.asp usually opens for 24 hours only after 10pm Saturday. After registration you can vote online for free for 20 times with each email ID. The voting page gets problematic sometimes but you have to refresh/reload few times to get to the actual page. Please refer to the discussion at the following forum http://darjeelingnews.net/forumdarjeeling/viewtopic.php?t=2554 to discuss and find more about voting online(problems).
