Esports receiving Rs 10 million sparked big controversy. But, players say it’s peanuts against the need

When X (name hidden upon request) found out about the Kathmandu metropolitan city giving a budget of Rs 10 million to develop esports in Nepal , he was not as pleased as many had hoped an esports player would be.

He has been in the scene for nearly a decade and competed in almost all national-level tournaments, but seeing how the media and people blew the thing up disgusted him.
