Tricks Of Traffickers
Remittances, sent by Nepali workers from abroad, provide a lifeline to the national economy. But this contribution is not without a huge socio-economic cost. The migrant workers are compelled to get involved in dirty, difficult and dangerous jobs. The insecure jobs have cost the lives of thousands of Nepalis over the years. Every day at least three bodies of Nepali land at the Tribhuvan International Airport. This is indeed a tragedy of Nepali youths forced to make fortune in foreign land owing to poverty, ignorance, lack of better education and employment opportunity at home. As going abroad becomes a compulsion rather than a wish, the Nepali workers make every effort to join the international labour market. This is a reason why they fall prey to fraudsters and deceptive agents of manpower companies. They are easily trapped by the traffickers that work on the pretext of offering lucrative foreign jobs.
Make Poll Manifestoes Realistic
Major political parties have tasked their respective panels in drafting the election manifestoes keeping in view the upcoming polls for federal and provincial parliaments. Needless to say, an election manifesto provides a list of policies programmes and strategies that a political party declares it will enact and execute if it is voted into power with the endorsement of the voters and constituents. The word “manifesto” itself originates from the Latin word "manifestum" which refers to a list of facts that are brought to fore and disseminated for public knowledge, information and consumption. It is a practice in democracies that each political party competing in the polls produces an official manifesto which offers the basis of its campaign and reaching out to the voters.
Civil Society Vital For Democracy
Civil society transforms and envisages the growth of civilisation. It embraces the material intercourse of individuals in a definite stage of development in a productive force. In a civil society, modern people legitimately gratify their self-interest and develop their personality. Individuals within civil society learn the importance of group actions and social solidarity which equips them for meaningful and productive participation in government and state activities. Diverse and well-intentioned civil societies play a crucial role in strengthening democracy and civic trust as the interests of citizens are of utmost priority. Social intervention by the state may not have democratic credentials without civil service engagement as it is the backbone of the state and citizens.
