[@NiranjanMalakar]

We Newars still call " Khopah" to Bhaktapur/Bhatgaon. We need to go behind Saskrit language to Prakrit language in order to understand the history of Nepal valley/Nepal Mandal. Prakrit/Pali language is mother of Saskrit language. For instance Dhamma to Dharma etc. The rulers NEVER feel ownness/belongingness to Nepal Valley and its history because its history goes behind Sanskrit language, Bedhas and Purans.
