    Pradosh Vrata । International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict





    Pradosh Vrat
    Triodashi is called Pradosh. Like Ekadashi, Pradosh is important every month, Vishnu is remembered in Ekadashi and Shiva is remembered in Pradosh. Pradosh begins 45 minutes before sunset and ends 45 minutes after sunset.



    Pradosha Katha
    It is mentioned in the scriptures that Lord Shiva cured the disease of the moon on the day of Triodashi, when the effect of the moon was diminishing.
    Due to this, Pradosh Vrat is observed in Triodashi of every month in remembrance of Lord Shiva. It is more fruitful to worship Shiva in the time of pradosh.

    International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict
    Background:
    Every year on June 19, the United Nations celebrates the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict to address the grievances and rights of victims of sexual violence during war. On June 19, 2015, the United Nations General Assembly (A / RES / 69/293) declared June 19 of each year the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict.

    The theme of this day is to raise awareness of the need to end sexual violence in conflict. This day has a special role to play in honoring the victims and survivors of conflict-related sexual violence, sexual violence around the world, and of standing up for the eradication of these crimes, and of paying tribute to those who have lost their lives.



     

    What is "conflict-related sexual violence?"
    The term "conflict (related sexual violence)" refers to rape, sexual slavery, forced prostitution, forced pregnancy, forced abortion or sterilization, forced marriage, and all forms of sexual violence against women, men, women, or girls that are directly or indirectly linked to the conflict. The term also refers to the trafficking of persons committed during a conflict for sexual violence or exploitation.

    Sexual Violence in Nepal's Armed Conflict
    The decade-long armed conflict has resulted in serious human rights violations in the country. But 16 years after the peace process began, serious human rights abuses during the armed conflict transitional justice are still on the darker side. In particular, issues such as sexual offenses against women have not been addressed. To make immediate arrangements for the truth, justice, and fulfillment of conflict victims and affected women, including self-respect, and to create a mechanism and environment for transitional justice to experience self-justice, family justice, and social justice. Appeals are being made to the government today.

    Hamro Patro - Connecting Nepali Communities
    Hamro Patro is one of the first Nepali app to include Nepali Patro, launched in 2010. We started with a Nepali Calendar mobile app to help Nepalese living abroad stay in touch with Nepalese festivals and important dates in Nepali calendar year. Later on, to cater to the people who couldn’t type in Nepali using fonts like Preeti, Ganesh and even Nepali Unicode, we built nepali mobile keyboard called Hamro Nepali keyboard.
