During 2000, The Nepal Home Page and Kantipur Publications will jointly be hosting a Century Poll series to ask our readers to vote for Nepalis who have contributed most in giving new course to the country's history in the Twentieth Century. Each month, the editors of Kantipur Publications and Nepal Home Page will choose a field to poll on. We will select Nepalis who have contributed to that field over the past 100 years and will allow our Internet readers to vote for one person in that list. At the end of the month, that poll will be closed and a new poll, in a different field, will be started. The editors of Kantipur Publications will write biographical descriptions of each persons in the list.

In addition to voting in this poll, you can also discuss the poll, yourchoice as well as any other aspects of this Century Poll in a special Century Poll Forum that we have created. We invite you to use that forum to discuss the poll as well as to provide us feedback on how to make this more useful.
