छोरी : आज भात किन नपकाको बा ?
बुबा :  आज कामनै पाइएन छोरी ! बन्द रे ! लौ तिमी यो बिस्कुट खाउ ! मलाई त भोक नी छैन !
छोरी : बन्द चै किन गरेका बा ?
बुबा : जनता लाई खुसी दिने रे !
छोरी : को हुन् बा यिनी जनता भन्या ? हामी भोकै बस्दा खुसी हुने !! :'(

मेरो देश को अवस्था ! आख़िर कैले सम्म येस्तो ? कैले आउछ हाम्रो नेता हरु को बुद्धि ? सदै बन्द मात्र ? अब काम गरेर पनि खान न पाउनी भैयो !!

“Bandh” in Nepali means "close" and it is the term used most often to describe a general strike. During a general strike, markets remain closed, businesses are shut, roads are deserted, and students remain at home.

Impact of Bandh on economy
         The direct economic cost of one day nationwide general strike is estimated to be NRs. 1.8 billion. It implies that one day nationwide general strike brings NRs 1.8 billion loss to Nepal, majority coming from service and industry sector. Agriculture sector is the least affected one by strikes. Moreover, at district level, Kathmandu bears the largest amount of gross output loss (6 percent) of total gross output loss of Nepal followed by Morang (4 percent) and Jhapa (3 percent), if there is one day nationwide general strike.
