Bange Sarki is honoured for his unwavering loyalty to the country, having refused to assist British forces in their plans against Nepal, despite promises of wealth and privilege. This issue highlights their often-overlooked contributions and recognises the important role of the Dalit community in shaping Nepal’s history.
