Kathmandu: Vice President Ram Sahaya Prasad Yadav has said that achieving social harmony and fostering a prosperous society must be a unified objective for everyone.
During a programme hosted by the National Dalit Commission to unveil the ‘Five-Year Strategic Plan 2082–2087 BS’ and the ‘New Grievance Handling System,’ he highlighted the importance of enhancing the rights of the Dalit community in the pursuit of justice, opportunity, equality, and inclusion.
Vice President Yadav remarked that the strategic plan is designed with a long-term perspective and expressed optimism that it will effectively tackle the challenges faced by the Dalit community while also aiding in the creation of a civilized and prosperous society. “The introduction of the new grievance management system should facilitate a systematic approach to resolving the issues, complaints, and rights-related matters concerning the Dalit community,” he said.
He conveyed his hope that the strategic plan will help prioritize initiatives such as strengthening the commission’s institutional framework, adhering to policies and laws, enhancing improvements through research, combating ethnic discrimination and untouchability, ensuring the Dalit community’s involvement in all state functions, and fostering cooperation and accountability in international treaties and agreements.
Yadav also emphasized that Dalits in the Tarai-Madhes continue to face marginalization in sectors like education, health, and politics, urging the commission to adopt a more proactive stance to integrate them into the mainstream.
