The Tamankhola rural municipality in Baglung has urged one and all to not entertain and promote untouchability (caste discrimination) under any circumstances.
Gandaki Province Governor Sita Kumari Poudel has said that role of women representing Dalit communities is crucial for developing an equitable society.
There should be no protection for people who are responsible for any incident of caste-based discrimination, the National Human Rights Commission has said.
The government is marking Jestha 21 as the Caste-Based Discrimination and Untouchability Elimination Day after Nepal was declared an untouchability-free nation in 2006.
