A science and art museum has been opened recently in Tikapur, Kailali. The museum opened by three brothers, Bijay Shahi, Arjun Shahi and Ganesh Shahi, known collectively as BAG features various sculptures of animals including dinosaur and rhino, and other informative materials for both children and adult science enthusiasts.

Speaking about the museum, Bijay Shahi said, “Most of the things we learn in school are theoretical and we barely get to see the practical application of it. Hence, to make it easier for students and teachers alike, we opened this museum.” He added, “We have used sensor system all around our museum to explain phenomenon like eclipse, hydropower, rainbows and many more. We are hopeful that this will help students understand science better and in a fun way.”

Speaking to the Post, Mahendra Bhandari, an attendee at the event, said, “The museum is entertaining and informative, both at once. There are many interesting arts, sculptures and informative materials here, which I think will be very useful to both teachers and students.”
