The Rotary Club of Patan Durbar Square is pleased to share the successful rescue and repatriation of seven vulnerable children and women from Madhesh Province who had been taken to various locations in India under false promises and inducements. The rescued individuals included five boys, one girl, and one woman, who were formally handed over to their relatives at the Office of the Chief of Madhesh Province in Janakpur.

The club proudly recognizes the remarkable humanitarian contribution of H. Member Rtn. Kalpana Maharjan, who played an important role in the successful rescue and repatriation of seven vulnerable children and women from Madhesh Province who had been trafficked and exploited in India.
