- "Does this happen when women bring forward some issues?" It can happen. If it is a man, wow! How good! It is said.
Rashmi Pant, Chief Business Officer of Prabhu Bank, said that the participation of women in the leadership roles of banks is low. She said that the participation of women in the bank as a whole is 45 percent, but at the leadership level, it can be counted on the fingers.
In the third session of 'Nirbhik Nari' organized by Kantipur Publications Limited in Kathmandu on Thursday, she said that although the participation of women in the banking sector is significant, it is insignificant in leadership roles.
"Women's participation in the banking sector is 45 while 55 percent are men, only 11 percent are women at the bank branch level," he said, "You can count on your fingers when you come to executive positions." However, only 0.7 percent of women are in the information technology sector as a whole.
She said that there is no gender discrimination in the banking sector, but it is still the same. "It was thought that there was no gender discrimination anywhere, but while working, you had to work between patriarchal and men, you have to deal with a male-dominated society," she said. It can happen. If it is a man, wow! How good! It is said.'
In the context of Nepal, she said that one has to invest 15 to 20 lakh rupees to study IT subjects. Parents also want to invest in sons rather than daughters, he says. She said that although many people are willing to study in the IT field, they hesitate because the investment is high.
