Report from Indra-Nepal
Dear JICA friends,
First of all I thank you that got a chance to take part in training in Japan. I am feeling now days that training grew up my moral power. I could not sent report you on time cause of situation of my country. So, I am very sorry. You have already known that I am not going forward according to action plan. I changed bit on plan because of environment of Nepal oriented me to the politics. I felt that we should join on politics to get rights of disables after getting the training of Japan. I realized that if we want to get new life on disables we should changed constitution completely and should write the constitution on favor of disables who are completely out of own rights. You know that I am selected as member of constitutional assembly by Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist). I am thinking to commence some points in constitution assembly which are given below:-
As fundamental rights of disables
1) Free education, health treatment, provide of assistance instrument, management of helper, reestablishment, physical environment without barrier, confirmation of compulsory job or pension (to sustain smoothly) for unemployed pension for aged disables.
2) Confirmation of human rights, rights of equality and rights of information (interpreter, brail teacher, road lamp with sound, news on brail, information park etc.) for disables person.
3) Brail letter and signal language should take as national language.
Points written below should implement immediately
1) "Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and Optional Protocol(CRPD-2006)" should approved which government of Nepal has already signed.
2) National and international laws and rules concerned disables should be compulsory implemented.
3) "Disables preserved and prosperity law – 2039" should implement after re writing.
4) Every political party should safe fixed quotas for disables persons in every committee of every party.
5) 50% discount for disable person and their helper should be implementation on social objects of transportation likes planes and buses. And should be reservation of seats.
6) Reestablish center should be established to long life for disables women and child who are very poor, homeless and parent less.
7) At least 25% quotas should be reserved for disables person in the private and government jobs in office on the base of qualification and capacity of disables women.
