President Obama doesn’t mention Buddhism in his inaugural speech (URGENT NEWS)

By Bhola B Rana

Kathmandu, 20 Jan: President Barak Hussein Obama made no mention of Buddhism as a major religion of the USA while mentioning Hinduism as a major religion of his country.
He spoke extempore.
The oversight could be controversial; Buddhists could start protests.
Majority Nepalis in Hindu Nepal now secular will be delighted by the mention of Hinduism even as the country, a previously monarchical Hindu kingdom, is now declared secular.
Obama made no mention of democracy anywhere in his inaugural speech while promising to protect US interests.
Obama inauguration waa followed with keen interest in Nepal of 24 million people with a 80 percent Hindu population.
Nnnn
