Looks like people are panicked that we made decision, not to give passport to asylee, but that not the case. There are few different aspect discussed here.

1. Do asylee need passport? –Looks like true asylee won’t need it, as travel document can substitute it
2. Do asylee want it? ------ Looks like most of them definitely do.
3. Can they get it? ------Looks like as of now they can’t get it renewed.
4. Who makes decision? -----Of course Nepal government, unless there is clear law defined by congress of Nepal or judicial of Nepal.
5. Can asylee fight for it? ----Of course they can in court of Nepal, or do lobbying for it.
6. Will community support it? ---Doesn’t look like there is huge support to fight heavily for it , but they may not heavily oppose it, if Nepal government agrees to give it.
7. Is passport basic/human right of asylee? ---- This will have personal opinion, I personally do not think, for asylee getting passport from home country, from where they flee is human right issue. When they have to flee from home country, there is biggest human right issue for them is being able to go back to their home. If that got fixed, passport will get fixed automatically. So the argument of passport as human right issue doesn’t carry weight for at least me. Through I am not expert on international law and human right, my common sense doesn’t allow me to accept that.
