Dear dissector,
You got me wrong. First thing is this man cannot be officially Indian and officially Nepali at the same time. Nepal does not allow dual citizenship, I do not know about India.
Secondly, I do not think नेपालीपन can be described or weighed in terms of नागरिकताको प्रमाणपत्र . Just analyse these two people here, Prashant Tamang, who when making a comment on the Indian Idol stage after being voted into the finals said " A Nepali has reached the finals of the Indian Idol " and Udit Narayan, who repeatedly says I was born and brought up in India and although technically I have a Nepali citizenship, I am an Indian. Whom would you say Nepali and whom would you say Indian ? Prashant Tamang, who introduces himself as a Nepali or Udit Narayan and Manisha Koirala, who have chosen to become Indians.
