CA Election Results: Durga Kumari BK is the first elected Dalit Karmajan CA member

April 12- Durga Kumari BK of CPN (Maoist), 26, has been the first Constituent Assembly (CA) member declared elected from Dalit Karmajan communities of Nepal. She is elected from the western district of Kaski (Constituency No. 4). The nepaldalitinfo heartily congratulates Ms. BK, and hopes for her vibrant and meaningful representation from the Karmajan communities to the CA.

The results of CA elections currently developing towards the prominence of Maoists indicate that Nepali people have opted for a real ‘CHANGE” in favor of masses, who are poor, disadvantaged and oppressed in the country. The results are showing that there is a ray of hope for Karmajans, who are oppressed in every sphere of the society for centuries.

Former US president Jimmy Carter on Saturday has said that the outcome of the Constituent Assembly election would “truly represent the aspirations of the people”. Carter sees this CA election as very important to, “end the 12-years-long conflict, establish republican set up in Nepal and provide a new opportunity to the marginalized community”.
