Dar Khane Din | National Day against Trafficking in Persons

Dar khane Din
Nepal is wrapped in the festival of Teej, Nepalis all over the world are living with Teej like environment wherever they are, Happy Teej to all sisters, daughter, friends, and mothers. The beautiful songs on TV and radio, the best wishes of Teej on newspapers, the best experiences of social media and the reddish decoration and beauty in the streets, what has not been touched by Teej?

Is it necessary to see Teej as a dedication rather than a strict brat of fasting? Let's talk today about the Dar khane Din. Although the Teej celebration starts months before the Teej, but traditionally it is customary to eat the Dar one day before fasting. Dar is a midnight food consumption for the endurance to the fasting of the next day.

For centuries, the dimensions of this fast for the good of women and her family have been modernized over time. Some commercialized components and obsolete rituals are added however, the main significance and true meaning of Teej withstands the same.

It is important to consider Teej as a purely simple and important festival and to make it accessible to all, rich and poor alike.

On the other hand, there is summer season, it is necessary to take special care of health, eating too much oily food, the maximum consumption of rich and tamasi food can make you sicker, so it is important to take care of these things while eating. The notion of strict fasting even without water are fruitful, this is not true. The health of a good husband and wife for unmarried and the health of the husband and family cannot be determined not only by a single day of fasting but by a yearlong of coordination, understanding, and cooperation, dedication, and respect for each other.

Men have equal responsibility today, one needs to take responsibility for the kindness of his mothers, sisters, and wives towards him, he needs to play the role of good companions by respecting and caring for them today. As an unmarried man, do you have any idea, is someone going to fast somewhere tomorrow?

Tomorrow's fast is not only fast but also a day of dancing, talking, worshiping, and having fun. In this way, it is customary for all the women to gather together and have fun and eat sweets and delicacies in the middle of the night, this is Dar.

The anguish of the daughters who could not go to their mothers while remembering the days of eating Darr is also shed with deep tears, sometimes in song and sometimes in love.

यसपाला तीजमा यस्तै भयो आमा
अर्कोपाला तीजमा खोलाले नछेके'

This year seems ruthless, next year I shall come to you my mother if the river won't stop me.

This wave of Teej is not the same everywhere this year, somewhere its party and somewhere its despair, anyway Teej arrives every year and smiles and cries are the two sides of a single coin.

Teej is also an enthusiasm for gender equality and gender equity. Teej can be taken as a common platform for the smiles of all-female relatives including mother, daughter, daughter-in-law, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, sister.

In any case, I wish you all the best on this Dar khane din, good health and longevity of our family, find a suitable partner, and good luck to all the sisters.
National Day against Trafficking in Persons

Background
This day is being celebrated on the day that the SAARC Convention against Child Trafficking 2002 was approved by the Nepalese government. Since the year 2064, Bhadra 20 has been celebrated as the National Day against Child Trafficking.

The year 2081B.S is the 18th edition of this day.
The government is conducting various awareness programs to reduce all kinds of human trafficking, especially the increasing trafficking of children and adolescents. Today, through various programs, rallies and meetings, we advocate for a Nepal free of human discrimination. Human Trafficking and Trafficking Act 2064 and Regulations 2064 have been enacted. However, due to the proper implementation of the Act and Regulations, the work against trafficking in women has not been fully successful. Meaningful wishes for today's day.
