The nepaldalitinfo report

London, October 30- The founding moderator of nepaldalitinfo network Dr. D.P. Rasali and the network’s website domain provider Ms. Krishna Rasali visited two London based organizations, Srijanshil Nepalese Society (SNS) and Voice of Dalit International (VoDI) last week, sparing a small time during their vacation in England.

Dr. and Ms. Rasali met over 100 members of the Srijanshil (Dalit) community during a Dashain celebration organized by SNS at a British Army Camp in Aldershot, a suburb town south-west of London. Dr. Rasali, who was felicitated as the chief guest of honor during the celebration ceremony, introduced to the gathering the nepaldalitinfo international network and its three functional organs- yahoo group email list, original and new websites, and urged everyone to visit for vast amount of dalit information resources available there. He urged everyone interested to sign up for nepaldalitifo yahoo group membership.

During the Rasali couple’s visit to VoDI office, Mr. Eugene Culas, Director of VoDI and Dr. Rasali exchanged introductory information about VoDI and nepaldalitinfo, respectively. Both discussed and explored potential areas of future collaboration, especially in internationalizing Nepal’s Dalit issues and strengthening capacity of Dalit activists/leaders for empowerment of Dalits in Nepal.

England probably has the largest population of Srijanshil people from Nepal among all the western countries. Networking with them for voicing Dalit issues of Nepal could have greater impacts on the way both British and Nepalese governments look at Dalits’ issues and welfare in Nepal.
