The sexual and gender minority community in Nepal has demanded with the government to include the community in the public service commission vacancy announced by the state. Speaking at an interaction organised by the Blue Diamond Society here on Saturday under the Community-Police Partnership Programme, various speakers said that the third gender needs to be incorporated in the advertisement for vacancies in the civil service. On the occasion, Jiya KC, Ashmita Shrestha, Anisha Subedi, Sunita Lama and others representing the community said that they have been stigmatized by both the community police and society. And that government jobs in civil service would help them live a life with dignity.
