Saraswoti Nepali who has been pitching for the rights of the marginalized communities in Nepal has received the United States Department of State's 'Global Anti-Racism Champions Award (GARC)' for this year.
The Kathmandu-based U.S. Embassy informed that the award has been conferred on Nepali as a chairperson of Dalit Samaj Bikas Munch in recognition of her two-decade plus advocacy for the human rights of excluded groups, poor and people with disability in Nepal.
It may be noted that numerous Dalit families of rural western districts of Nepal have obtained legal right over the land ownership as a result of her efforts.
Chairperson Nepali has won several cases against the caste-based discrimination in the pursuit of justice.
Her contribution to the campaign of dignity and equality is an epitome of courage and dedication.
