The Dalit(lower cast) community constitutes 20 percent of the total population of Dasharathchanda Municipality, Baitadi. Although the Constitution of Nepal 2072 BS and the laws issued by the government mention positive discrimination for the Dalit(lower cast) and Haliya (labor), and poor communities, the socio-economic condition of the people is not improving as expected. Although the Nepali government has adopted a policy of giving priority to the Dalit and backward class communities in various programs, a small number of people from the Dalit community have not been able to take advantage of it.
