Who could be this notorious Parliamentarian?

It has rightly been said that if the ever growing the number of Non Governmental Organizations in the country be allowed to grow at the present rate then a time would definitely come in the life of this nation when the ever swelling number of the said NGOs will very easily outnumber the Nepali population. The scenario would then be undoubtedly appalling. What a NGO or for that matter the INGOs mean in Nepali context is self-explanatory and hence we wish not to delve on that matter seriously.

However, we wish to again reiterate that Nepal basically is a male-dominated society. Beginning the leaders who have practically ruined the nation and that too well within a short span of unlucky thirteen years to the bureaucrats, ministers, Ambassadors, policy and decision makers all comprise of men. The weaker sex is denied this right for obvious reasons. Albeit the constitution or for that matter the internal manifesto of most of the political parties who now call the shots in the country's affairs have made it mandatory that a certain percentage of the women folks have got to be included in the elections and the likes so that this section too felt that they too were a very important part of the society. However the fact is that the women folks still were being treated the same manner as they had been for centuries and centuries. Barring a few lectures in favor of the women by high-placed big-wigs of the country, nothing so far has been done to uplift the women folks of the country. The fact is that a section of the women folks belonging to the so-called high-society were the ones who had been the enemies of their own sisters. It is this section which run the dollar-earning NGOs or were seated in high chairs of some INGOs.

The women are still denied education. Even if they were allowed are forced to quit midway. The women even if she were a genuine Nepali citizen can't claim their citizenship certificates unless endorsed by either their father or for that matter their husbands. The male dominated school system in the country would ask to write down the name of the father while getting admitted in the school. A girl-child the whereabouts of whose father remained a mystery would summarily be denied schooling simply because she has no father. Look the tragedy! The girl is a Nepali, her mother a Nepali but yet she is denied her due rights.

Cutting it short, we wish again to divert the attention of our highly qualified readers to the superb second episode of the NTV's presentation on the plight of BADI women telecast this Sunday evening which was anchored by Ms. Chataut.

The inner pains of one BADI women was, among others, startling and disgusting. Disgusting in the sense that the civilised Nepali society can't imagine this to have happened. The fact is that this has happened. While describing her pains, the particular women very daringly revealed that "she was the daughter of a sitting parliamentarian" and "all that she wished was to listen from her political father that she was his own blood.

Understandably, a BADI woman when she dares to call it a fact then it should definitely be a fact. The internal matter would have been that this girl's mother must have told her that she carried the blood of  Mr. X. Who else could guarantee a child that this fellow or that one were his or her father than a women? In this light what could be guaranteed is that the girl's revelation were true or else a girl of modest age and background can't dare to declare so.

But then who could be that special politician who till the other day was Nepal's honorable parliamentarian? If it is so then what also could be guessed is that so many "so-called" BADI children languishing in Dang and Nepalganj areas should possibly be related to some other politicians. This also means that Nepali politicians at times prefer to visit the very "special" places to quench their sex-thirst and outrightly deny to have visited those brothels for sake of retaining their prestige and popularity in their constituencies.

It is time that the particular parliamentarian must be dug out and be forced to accept the said girl who so forcefully admitted that she wished to have a "father" and nothing more than that.

Shame on us. Shame on all of us. Shame on the existing pattern of the Nepali society. And finally shame on that very particular parliamentarian who refuses to accept his own kid and has forced her to remain in the hell. We wish to thank the girl for her daring revelation. It is time now for the Nepalese journalists specialized in investigative reporting to find out the truth and expose the said parliamentarian. Will some one dare to move? Are the dollar earning women seated in the revolving chairs listening to the girl's revelations? Hopefully not.

Shame! Shame!! Shame!!!
