| Bhim Shumsher JBR (centre) and other Ranas |
I found this photo on my way to the office, lying on the road and was full of dust. As my eyes fell upon it, I picked it up hurriedly and wiped the dust with my hand as I was curious to see the people in the photo. I hardly could make a guess that the photo must have been of Nepali soldiers. I was so happy as if I
found the valuable thing and showed it to my colleagues, contrary they took it lightly. In the evening when I reached home after the office, I showed it to
Kamal, he was as much excited as I was. We both tried to figure out who
might they could be, and when that photo might have been taken? Some days passed by in our curiosity.
Suddenly one day we thought to forward the photo to Vintage Nepal to post on
their FB page. As they had been posting such photos in their timeline. Kamal sent a scanned copy to them. They were
able to find out the people in the photo and the year photo was taken. It was taken in 1930 AD. And people in the
photo were Then Prime Minister Bhim Shumsher
JBR (centre) and other Ranas, including Padma Shumsher JBR and Juddha Shumsher
JBR. And hence our curiosity came to an end. I thought it was worth sharing with you guys.
Below is the link where you can see the photo on
Vintage Nepal’s FB page.
Thank you.
God Bless :)
