Congratulations to Supriya!
It is pleasant to know that Supriya Tuladhar was crowned Miss Newa 2007. All my best wishes - "Bhintuna". Don't you think it is the time to dig our significance of this event. Have you any idea where is the former Miss Newa. I mean what is she doing?
Supriya Tuladhar was crowned Miss Newa 2007 title at the Mero Mobile Miss Newa contest which took place this Saturday at the BICC Hall at New Baneshwor. Shweta Shrestha was honored with the 1st runner-up title while Bandana Tandukar walked away the 2nd runner-up title.
“For me both equal rights and opportunities are important because they are two sides of a single coin. There are equal rights when there are equal opportunities and vice-versa. That's why equal rights and equal opportunities should be utilized in a fruitful manner.” Answered Supriya to the common question of the jury: What is important equal right or equal opportunity and why?
“When I didn't win a single sub-title, I'd given up my hope but when my name got announced, it was a dream come true,” shared Supriya with smile.
Along with the titles Supriya, Shweta and Bandana won Rs 82,000 (in total), Rs 15,000 and Rs 10,000 each respectively.
Besides the main title holders, there were 12 other sub-titles that were presented to the contestants at the same event.
