Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is one of the cross-cutting issues. It is
a worldwide serious concern. Human trafficking is an illegal trade of human
beings for sexual exploitation, forced labour, extraction of organs' or tissues
and so on. According to die United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC),
human trafficking is the recruitment or transportation of persons by means of
the threat or use of force or other forms of abduction, fraud of deception or
for the purpose of exploitation. It knows no gender, age, race and boundaries.
Victims are trafficked within a country or transnational.
They are smuggled because they are forced to work as prostitutes, domestic
servants, beggars, factory workers, mine workers, circus performers and child
solders. It is like another form of slavery. The majority of trafficking
victims are women and children because of their marginalisation in many
societies and their limited economic resources. Beside them, other key target
group include people from low income households, ethnic minorities, illiterate
or people with low level of education refugees, illegal migrants, children
running away from home, and other. Members of split families are also prone to
it. Women of forced marriage and early marriage, deserted wife, widows and
discriminated daughters are easily victimised.
Traffickers prey on the most vulnerable members of society.
In order to deceive, first, they take help of local people to identify such
families. They may provide economic incentive and financial loans to their
friends, relatives, they provide economic incentive and financial loans to
their friends, relative, family, spouse or even parents. At times, most victims
are lured and promises of better job in cities, false marriages and proposals,
easy money, dream of sophisticated life and other. Victims of earthquakes,
floods, wars and epidemics can be easily smuggled.
Most victims are involved in slavery like practices, and
kept in prison like environment. It is because they can be physically and
sexually abused. They have to work long hours without any rest or recreation.
They never get medical facility when they fall sick. They are either paid less
or their earnings are with held with prolonged indebtedness to traffickers.
Our constitution has preserved the right to freedom.
Therefore, we must fight against trafficking of persons. In addition to
legislation, the Nepal government, the ministry of women, children and welfare,
various INGOs and NGOs and many other organisations in Nepal are dedicated to
combat human trafficking.
If we suspect anyone involving in such illegal activities,
we have to report the police or any member of concerned organisations. We can
also use helpline numbers anytime to inform about victims or traffickers. Our
little effort will be a great help to control violation of human rights.
THE IMPORTANCE OF AGRICULTURE IN NEPAL
The practice of growing crops and raising animals for
various purposes is simply known as agriculture. Nepal is a mountains country
where most of the people are farmers. They depend in agriculture, which is the
backbone of our country. It has been the primary means of livelihood for the
Nepalese people. Most of the cottage industries in Nepal are agro-based.
Agriculture supplies them with raw materials.
There is a great importance of agriculture in Nepal.
Agriculture is the main source of food stuff not only for human beings but also
for animals and poultry. Unless and agro-based country can feed its people,
development may not grew it pace. If we produce more crops, vegetables and
fruits then we need, we can export them to other countries and earn foreign
currency. Agriculture is not only the source of food but also the dominant
source of raw materials for industries as well. Jute, sugarcane, tobacco etc.
are obtained from agriculture. Thus, agro-based industries, to some extent, can
solve the problem of unemployment.
In conclusion, agriculture is crucially important in Nepal.
It provides daily needs to the peoples, increase exports, cuts down imports, solve
the problem of unemployment and provides raw materials to some industries. The
progress of the country depends on the agricultural development. So, the
government and responsible sectors should give the top-most priority to
agricultural development.
