Ep: 405 | The Untold History of Cannabis in Nepal | Nabin Bibhas on Hemp, Trade & Culture

Cannabis has played a significant role in Nepal’s culture, economy, and history, yet its legacy remains largely untold. In this episode, we sit down with Nabin Bibhas to uncover the fascinating history of cannabis in Nepal, from its traditional use as Bhangu to its transformation into Ganja. We explore how hemp agriculture in Nepal was once an integral part of rural livelihoods, providing fiber for hemp weaving, oil for medicine, and even food. Nabin Bibhas shares insights on how Maoists and the cannabis trade were linked during the insurgency, raising the question: Did Maoists sell cannabis to buy weapons? We also discuss the Maoist insurgency in Nepal and how cannabis was both a survival tool and a political element. Additionally, we take a deep dive into Thabang village, where police are not allowed to interfere with cannabis and beef culture, reflecting the unique legal and social perspectives in Nepal. We also discuss how capitalism ruined Nepal’s hemp industry, leading to the decline of hemp textiles and traditional uses of cannabis. With growing conversations around Nepal cannabis legalization, will we see a revival of cannabis farming in Nepal? Join us as we explore the rich history, political influence, and future potential of this sacred plant. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more thought-provoking discussions! #CannabisNepal #HempIndustry #MaoistInsurgency GET CONNECTED WITH Nabin Bibhas: YouTube:    / @thebibhas   Instagram:   / bibhasnabin   Timestamps: 0:00 Giest Introduction 3:35 Bhangu & Jaipa Village 8:13 Sister Cropping 13:30 How Bhaang Was Related to Lifestyle 19:58 Trade 26:10 Use of Branch, Stem, Fruit & Oil 34:18 Thakaan Basne 47:06 Poem 56:31 Weaving losing value 1:05:21 Weaving, hemp fiber & food preference 1:21:06 Capitalism 1:29:27 Maoist Conflict 1:38:58 Maoist Insurgency & Cannabis 1:55:47 Perception of Cannabis Negative? 2:07:50 Thabang Village Recommend us Guests for the Podcast: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FA...
