In a semi-feudal country like Nepal, the question of women's emancipation must focus on the struggle against the monarchy that aims at keeping both men and women in the shackles of slavery. It should not be limited only to gender. In this context, what women must understand is the role of private property in the development of human society. Women became the first slaves. That means the liberty of women is possible only after the freedom of all other communities and classes. The first step is an unconditional right to parental property and equal participation in state power. Women have already shown great courage in the urban street protests and in the rural battles with the royal army. Now patriotic and democratic women must join hands with men and stand up against the fascist regime.
