Abstract

George Orwell's world famous novel often was interpreted as a warning that the year 1984 would bring mankind to a fatal and irreversible transition from freedom to regimentation. No such radical departure took place, in Nepal or elsewhere, despite some uneasy signs gleaned from Amnesty International reports and dramatized by the assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. On the contrary, 1984 on the whole was a very ordinary year in Nepal, one of routine complacence, which did not instill any marked sense of movement either poiitically or economically.
