Constitutional Arrangements And Dalit Representation

Nepal's Constitution is considered much more progressive in many senses. It mandates proportional and inclusive participation of women, indigenous ethnic groups, Madhesi, Dalits, and marginalised communities in state apparatuses. "To build an egalitarian society founded on the proportional inclusive and participatory principles in order to ensure economic equality, prosperity, and social justice, by eliminating discrimination based on class, caste, region, language, religion and gender and all forms of caste-based untouchability" is the part of the preamble of the Constitution.
