On Thursday, certificates were being distributed to 110 MPs from the proportional representation party. One of them was Samina Miyan. She came with her one-and-a-half-year-old daughter in her arms. She became an MP from the Muslim Women's Cluster from the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
‘This was not an ordinary election. It was an election of sacrifice and self-sacrifice of our brothers and sisters,’ she said. ‘That is why I have taken this as a great responsibility for the country rather than enthusiasm.’
She says that she will raise her voice about irregularities in the health sector when she reaches the House. She said, ‘I will raise my voice about everything I have seen while working in the health sector. I will speak about the problem of low staffing of health workers and the emigration of skilled manpower abroad.’ She says that she will never hesitate to raise her voice about the problems in the health service and the health system.
37-year-old Samina’s political journey began since the founding of the National Independence Party. ‘Earlier, in the 2079 election, I was a candidate from the Muslim women’s cluster for the House of Representatives.’ Even though I was on the closed list, I could not become an MP because our party had fewer seats at that time,' she said, 'Now, in the party's internal primary election, I received the highest number of votes from all over the country for women. I got an opportunity for equality.'
There are plans to pay special attention to women's education, health, and empowerment, The people have made us win, now it is our turn to win the country and the people. Before entering politics, she worked as an 'Assistant Nursing Officer' at Chitwan Medical College for about 5 years. While working, she saw her colleagues forced to go abroad because they did not get the service they were promised in the country. She was worried when she saw the low number of health workers in the health sector and those who migrated abroad as soon as they completed 12th. Samina, who hails from Chitwan, was born into an ordinary family of the Muslim community. Her parents raised their family by running a small fancy business. Samina completed her secondary education from Bal Kumari Kanya Madhyamik School. She then did PCL Nursing from Butbal, Bachelor in Nursing from Bharatpur, and MSc Nursing from Rajiv Gandhi University in Bangalore, India.
Samina had been thinking that the bad distortions in the country should be removed since then. She was also with Dr. Govinda KC in Satyagraha. She has been at the forefront and raising her voice on irregularities in the health sector, a voice for women, and social issues. She has also provided health services through health camps in various places.
She has the idea of making her voice louder in the parliament to overcome discrimination against women, which is still behind in the Muslim community. ‘In the Muslim community, girls are still not able to study like boys.’ She said, ‘I plan to pay special attention to women’s education, health and empowerment.’ She said, ‘I will raise my voice not only about the problems of the Muslim community but also about the problems of every community.’ She said that becoming an MP inspired women from the Muslim community to enter politics.’ Her husband is a civil engineer by profession. She said that her husband and family supported her when she entered politics. ‘I have got the opportunity to combine both motherhood and leadership.’ She said, ‘I have come into politics with the determination to fulfill the dreams of my brothers and sisters to honor their sacrifices.’ She said, ‘I will work for the good of the country in every way. The people have made us win, now it is our turn to make the country and the people win.’
