The fact that the extremely marginalized Chepang community living in Nepal is beyond the minimum basic needs has become public.

According to the report prepared by the National Human Rights Commission, it has been found that the problem of child marriage is rampant in the Chepang community, which is far from the minimum basic needs.

According to human rights officer Kiran Baram, due to child marriage, many people have not been able to get citizenship, birth registration, marriage registration, voter ID card. Especially, Chepang community is living in Makwanpur, Chitwan, Dhading and Gorkha districts of Nepal. Baram said that 42 mines are operating in these 4 districts and 410 households are affected due to mining.

'We have found that the third party buys the mine and sells it to the other party at a high price. Due to this, the Chepang community is forced to live in the poor land by becoming homeless, he said, "The Chepang community is forced to live in an unsafe way. The conflict between the national park and the Chepang community is ongoing. The Chepang community is in a situation where they are not even getting the compensation paid by the animals because they are forced to live on the Ailani land. He said that it has been found that the Chepang community is involved in illegal activities such as drug and poaching. Baram said that 33 percent of Chepang are in prison for drug related cases and 24 percent for forest related cases. It has been reported that only 90 percent of Chepang children are enrolled in school and the dropout rate is also increasing.

The Human Rights Commission has claimed that Chepang's right to life is being violated due to the crusher and mining industry. It has been pointed out that due to more than 3 dozen mining and quarrying industries operating in Chepang settlement areas of Dhading, Chitwan, Makwanpur and Gorkha, the Chepang community is forced to lose their housing rights, collective rights and traditional land ownership. It has been suggested that an integrated mobile camp should be conducted to provide citizenship, birth certificate and other certificates to the Chepang community.
