Madheshi Commission
The Madheshi Commission shall protect and promote the rights, interests, and identity of the Madheshi community. It addresses discrimination, monitors inclusion policies, and recommends policy changes.
The Madheshi community (Terai/southern plains people) faced historic marginalization in Kathmandu-centric governance. This commission monitors Madheshi representation in civil service, security forces, and political bodies; investigates discrimination complaints; and pushes for Madheshi-specific policy. It was a key demand during the 2015 Madhesh Movement.
मधेसी आयोग — मधेसी समुदायको अधिकार, समावेशिता र भेदभाव विरुद्ध संरक्षण। प्रतिनिधित्व अनुगमन।
Addresses historic Madheshi marginalization with dedicated constitutional body.
Commission has been caught in identity politics — who qualifies as \'Madheshi\' is itself contested.
