Kathmandu, November 24:

Children representing all the 75 districts on Monday submitted a 15-point charter to President Dr Ram Baran Yadav, urging him to ensure their rights in New Nepal, on the occasion of the International Child Rights Day and the 21st anniversary of Child Workers in Nepal. The President signed a 10-metre painting, backing their cause.

A press statement issued here on Monday quoted President Yadav as saying that women and children had fallen victims to the armed conflict.

He added that the children’s concerns should be addressed while drafting the new constitution.
