The book was released on the occasion of 37th marriage anniversary of PM Oli and his spouse Shakya amidst a function in the federal capital, Kathmandu, today.

At the programme, author Shakya said the moments of her life– experience, struggles, success, and social service- were included in the book. The ups and downs of her life, from childhood to job holding and study to nuptial knot to leader Oli are made elaborate in the book.

“I’m neither a litterateur nor a writer. However, I used to jot down the ideas I had. I was sympathetic to the poor, the sick and helpless people since my childhood. My marriage to the present PM Oli was also an event caused by that very ‘karuna’ (compassion)”, Shakya reminded.
