A video that has gone viral in nepal captures a confrontational moment between Nepali social activist Ashika Tamang and two indian men from bihar, accused of urinating on the roadside. The 60-second clip, which has sparked widespread discussion, highlights issues of public decorum, cultural sensitivity, and the challenges of cross-border interactions.

The video begins with a scene of two men standing on a dirt path beside a road, with a white car parked nearby. The setting is a semi-urban area, characterized by a mix of buildings, including a multi-story structure and a yellow house, under a cloudy sky. The men, one in a blue t-shirt and shorts holding a water bottle, and the other in a sleeveless shirt and light-colored shorts, appear to be engaged in conversation with an unseen interlocutor, presumably Ashika Tamang.

As the video progresses, the dialogue, partially subtitled in English, reveals a heated exchange. Ashika Tamang questions the men about their actions, asking, "Do you want to get married? You are getting married after doing Pisa, aren't you?" The term "Pisa" is a local euphemism for urinating, and the query seems to challenge the men's behavior in a public space. The men respond defensively, with one admitting they are from bihar and justifying their actions by saying, "A girl walks in front of him and he does Pisa."

The confrontation escalates as Ashika Tamang, known for her activism, schools the men on the availability of public toilets and the inappropriateness of their actions. She points out, "There is no Pisa there. You will get free Pisa in this," referring to the roadside, and admonishes them, "Don't do that on the road. It isn't good." The men, seemingly embarrassed, try to defend themselves, but the activist's firm stance is evident.

The incident has also drawn attention to Ashika Tamang's role as a social activist. Known for her efforts in addressing public issues, her confrontation with the men underscores her commitment to challenging unacceptable behavior, regardless of nationality. However, it also raises questions about the generalization of such actions to an entire region or community, as noted by Sury, who comments, "Many indians urinate in public. Why blame only Bihar? She assumed they were from Bihar. They may be anywhere from India."
