It was a chowk from which we could either enter the village, or go ahead to find the hospital and the inter-college for the Ranipokhri students. The chowk housed both an auto and a bus stand, along with several thelas and fruit and vegetable vendors. Apart from these, the chowk was full of shops, from large scale kiranas to halwais; from small paan-walas to chemists. This chowk was clearly the commercial point of the village.enRural development & problemsStudy by studentsRural research project: Ranipokhri
