Punakha Domche concludes, Tshechu begins tomorrow
Mar 2, 2012
The three-day annual Punakha Domche concluded today with Nob Chu Shag Ni or the symbolic immersion of the sacred relic of Rangjung Kharsa Pani into the Mochhu. The ceremony was presided over by His Holiness the Je Khenpo.
Her Majesty the Queen Mother, Dorji Wangmo Wangchuck, and their Royal Highnesses attended the last day of Punakha Domche.
Thousands of people from across the country and tourists attended the Domche.
During the final day, mask dances of Dochhula Tshechhu were also performed. Pazaps or warriors from the Wang Tsho-Chen-Gyed enacted the ancient military scenes of the 17th century.
Punakha Dromche is dedicated to the guardian deities Mahakala and Pelden Lhamo. Meanwhile, the three-day Punakha Tshechu will begin from tomorrow. The Tshechu will depict the entire history of Zhabdrung Nawang Namgyal.
Well! I suddenly realized that every one knows Punakha Domchen and Tshechu is considered one of the most Important through out the country. But its very difficult to know why its not given on “LIVE TELECAST”. well forget about festival, BBS news reporters are not on time what ever happens like car accidents, suicides, variety shows etcs. Looking back to 2009s where there was flood in Punakha and BBS news reporters could not even give and clear and correct information on how worse that was. Well it looks like some of the Dzongkhags are left unattended same like Punakha, But talking about some Dzongkhags like Thimphu, Paro, Phuntsholing etc, the news from theses few Dzongkhags are blooming like anything even simple news like about marriage, mystries wemon ects. so I feel every one have right to know whats happening in every places too, and I even hard some people saying that the news reports don’t want to go to some of the Places eg. like Punakha as the reporters are not getting good TADA, SO IN THESE CASE, WHO ARE THE VICTIMS????? WHO IS THE MAIN RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS???? DO YOU WANT WE TO BE THE SAME OR MAKE SOME CHANGES??? No mater how much new channels you come up for BBS but if the quality and important of the News are not there then Who cares.
