Caste discrimination in Nepal was officially abolished.


On 5 September 1963, the caste discrimination in Nepal was abolished under King Mahendra.

However, it still exists in practice.

Dalits face hidden discrimination in daily life, including denial of housing, jobs, and social acceptance.

Untouchability and social restrictions continue in some areas.

Dalits remain economically disadvantaged, and women face double discrimination.

Laws exist, but poor enforcement and social attitudes keep the problem alive.
