I had deep feeling to engage critically at Terai when I witnessed so many evils regarding empowerment of women and girls specially hurt by child and early marriage, dowry, domestic violence. It was not easy though I continuously attempted many ways such as spent four weeks in Terai during boarder blockade, investigation a case of Child Marriage where I was not happy and struggling to know more about gaps on empowerment. Thus, I had visited to Parsa from August 11-16, 2016 where I had met so many people from different walks of life. It was possible due to incredible support from Sano Paila specially Subir Ghosh and Superintendent of Police Dr Rajababu Shrestha.
I departed from Kathmandu by public bus, use riksa and bike while travelling at local level. I shared the cost for meeting cost and local transport with Subir. I slept one night at Hotel classic but paid for two nights Nrs 1700 and stayed at Jayant Giri's bed along with her at Nagawa village. I was picked up and dropped off by Umesh Giri who is brother of Jayanti.
