About :
- Today is the birthday of Janaknandini Sita – the brightest gem produced by the soil of Nepal. Born in the sacred Janakpur city of Nepal in the remote prehistoric age much before Christ, Sita has been the very symbol of piety, graciosity, motherly affection, purity of character, serenity, undefinable beauty and transcendental power. Every Nepali, today, bows his head with deep sense of devotion and respect for Janaki.
