NRNA Australia: When will the female get to lead?

As the Non-Resident Nepal Association (NRNA) Australia's election scheduled for July 29 draws near, the organisation established to advocate for the welfare of the Nepali diaspora finds itself under scrutiny from the community it serves. In a recent discussion with SBS Nepali, presidential candidates Anil Pokhrel, Deb Bahadur Gurung, and Dila Kharel, along with vice-presidential candidates Sukirti Bhatta and Sandhya Shah expressed their views on various issues within the organisation including the representation of women in a leadership position.
