===The contest resumes despite Maoist threats===
+
 
+
[http://www.worldlatestnews.com/world-news/miss-nepal-hopes-to-outsmart-maoists-by-dropping-dabur-tag-73725 Sudeshna Sarkar/ WorldLatestNews] wrote in 2009:
+
When the Maoist government fell in May, the Hidden Treasure, the event management company franchised to hold the pageant, announced the show would be resumed. The Maoists, now in the opposition, said they would oppose it but did not succeed.
+
 
+
The Dabur Vatika Miss Nepal contest, which was sponsored by Indian ayurvedic product manufacturer Dabur was repositioned as the Fem Miss Nepal 2009 pageant in a bid to downplay the role of the Indian company that the Maoists have been pressuring the pageant organisers to replace.
+
 
+
In June 2009, the Dabur India board approved the acquisition of Fem Care Pharma Ltd, mainly known for its bleaching and depilatory products.
+
 
+
Given just about three weeks’ time to organise the event, the Hidden Treasure has downscaled the hoopla to hold the grand finale in the army club instead of the stately Birendra International Convention Centre, where it was held in the past.
+
 
+
At the time it was reported that for the first time a Muslim contestant was shortlisted to take part in the finals. This is not correct because Jharana Bajracharya Rashid had been selected Miss Nepal twelve years before, in 1997.
+
===The winners were===
+
Jenisha (Zenisha) Moktan, Kathmandu
