Write And Fight For Right

It is a fact that men and women are two wheels of a societal cart. A cart cannot work in the absence of a wheel. So women’s role in the development of a society is always crucial. But the bitter truth is that women are often neglected in the Nepalese society. They are thought to be weaker, less important than men. They have to work harder than men, they have no right to  parental property—sons get all the parental property but daughters hardly get any share of such property. Even in schools and colleges boys outnumber the girls because it is tradition among many parents, especially of rural areas, to send their daughters to work in the fields and sons to school.

In short women here are discriminated in every sector though the Constitution of the Kingdom has granted equal rights to women. The existing laws and regulations too are unable to empower women. Thus many women in country are compelled to a live miserable life.  The concerned authorities should do something for the betterment of women folk. The women should also write and fight for their rights.
