Kathmandu. Nepali Congress Parliamentary Party leader Bhimraj Angdembe has extended heartfelt greetings to all Nepali sisters and mothers on the occasion of the Eighth National Women's Rights Day. 

Issuing a message of goodwill on Saturday on the occasion of the day, he stated that women's capabilities, creativity, leadership, and contribution are the main pillars of nation-building.

Leader Angdembe clarified that an inclusive, just, and prosperous society can only be built through the meaningful participation and leadership of women in political, social, economic, educational, and cultural fields. He stated that the effective implementation of women's rights guaranteed by the constitution of Nepal, the assurance of equal opportunities, and women's self-reliance and empowerment are the primary needs of today. He pointed out that even though rights have been obtained legally, more effort is still needed to translate them into practice.

In his message, leader Angdembe discussed the historical contribution made by women leadership in various stages of Nepal's democratic movement, women's movement, social transformation, and nation-building.

He stated that the contributions made by many women leaders, including Mangaladevi Singh, Yogmaya Nyaupane, Divya Koirala, Sadhana Pradhan, and Sahana Pradhan, in the struggle for rights are always memorable. He mentioned that it is on the foundation of the sacrifice and struggle of these senior women leaders that Nepali women have been able to achieve various rights today.

He emphasized that all parties must be serious about taking the campaign for the attainment of rights to a higher level. Leader Angdembe stated that the state, political parties, civil society, and the entire community need to work with a common commitment to protect and promote women's rights. He expressed confidence that only through collective effort can gender inequality and discrimination existing in society be uprooted.

Congress leader Angdembe expressed the expectation that the National Women's Rights Day will spread further awareness about women's rights in Nepali society.
