'Saahas' written by Meena Paudel seems like a true story of 28 women who returned after being trafficked but were socially excluded. But its beauty is not just this poignant detail but theoretical and multifaceted. This is a work that goes into the depth of the subject.

The selection of 28 women included in the book is based on different age, community, region, religion, childhood environment, marital status, family profession. It also has additional details like having/not having children, single woman, married, remarried, having/not having HIV. 

The book describes the nature, contours and depth of exclusion of women who have been sold and returned to Nepal in particular. It is beautifully presented how the women resisted the trafficking by adopting contemporary and strategic weapons. The book also presents the real and fake work of organizations, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations working against women trafficking.  After reading the

book, you will understand how much the institutions of marriage, family, society and the state are affected by feudalistic male thinking. The family, society and even the state agencies are ruthless for women who are suffering from poverty, oppression or hardship. Can't escape from child marriage, can't avoid violent marriage, can't live without marriage! Marriage is a curse for such women.

This book tells the harrowing story of a trafficked woman. The book poignantly portrays how they are ostracized from their families and neighbors after their return, how they are being deprived of their citizenship, and what is the behavior of organizations and state agencies that protect them from trafficking. 

An excluded woman was forced to choose the path of death due to her husband's sexual violence, even though the book "Courage" was not published. There is also a poignant story of another woman - she was taken to be sold while reading, but she ran away and returned, but when she tried to read again, she could not.

because he was initially ostracized by his own friends, later ignored by his teachers. After that, his parents also did not want to teach him. A woman was excluded from Kulpuja when she returned home after being sold. After the villagers got to know him, the society boycotted him from the streams and fields.

Among these 28 women, some of them are looking for work and some of them fell into human trafficking while studying. Excluded women bravely registered the 'Shakti Group' organization for their rights and the details of its operation are in the book. It has also been mentioned how it took four years for 'Shakti Group' to register the organization. 

author will look at women trafficking through which eyes? She has discussed the question of whether to look only from the circle of sexuality and sexual exploitation or to look at it as a part of exploitation within the broader dimension of immigration. For those who want to see it as sexual exploitation only, it is a criminal offense in their view. Therefore, those who are trafficked should be rescued.

should be kept in a safe place. If this is understood as sexual exploitation within immigration while looking for work, it becomes a matter of human rights, it becomes a matter of the right/right to work. Lost identity becomes a matter of recovery. It also becomes a matter of bringing the traffickers to court and punishing them. 

Another important aspect of this book is the feminist method of research. It is known from the book how multifaceted this method is, how it can empower even the people asked by the researcher. It assumes that the source of knowledge can be not only the researcher but also the participant in the research.
