SURKHET, Dec 11: Non-gazetted first class Officer Nabraj Sharma Rijal, working in the Ministry of Social Development of Karnali Province, allegedly assaulted his wife Nirmala Kumari Acharya, who is also the head of women and children branch of Bhairabi Rural Municipality of Dailekh on Saturday morning and injured her. The incident sheds light on the prevalent issue of domestic violence against women in Nepal. What would it be like in an uneducated society where women are in such a situation in a home where both husband and wife are educated?
The Ministry of Social Development on Sunday held a consultative meeting on “Discussing the Country Profile Report on Employment Policies for Persons with Disabilities in the Sultanate of Oman.”
On Tuesday an agreement was signed for the establishment of a laboratory for developing services and programmes in favour of persons with disabilities.
