Nalapani bro,

Did we have discussion before? On this topic?

Arahat, 

"But perhaps we can do something today so that these things don't get repeated. But unfortunately, it is still being practiced today in the modern Nepal."

What is still practiced? 7 years old girls still marry 70 years old men? Elephant still make king? In fact, very few things from that books are still practiced. The country has moved forward, 20%+ MPs are women, constitutionally women are also given property rights, so on. Things may  not be perfect, they are in the right direction. I would like them to be pushed further in the right direction, but I don't like this NGO inspired attitude of opposing everything our culture has. This woman actually asks that the book be rewritten. This is similar to what happened in China during the cultural revolution. man nalageko kuro wipe out garne, rewrite garne bhanne..

The issue is women rights, not swasthani. It is just a cultural relic that should be left at its own. How come every time we have festival there are these weirdos coming out to oppose it? In Dashai too, there are weirdos who think , tika laune chalan le aksheta waste bhayo, etc etc'
