Observing Pride Day for LGBTIQ community, people belong to the community gathered at Basantapur Durbar Square in small number to mark the day which has been organised annually since 2002. In memory of people ended their lives on their own and some succumbed to Covid-19, this year’s pride parade was conducted differently by lighting a candle for the deceased people. Celebrated annually on day of Gai Jatra, the Pride Parade of Nepal brings on thousands of members from sexual minority groups who have been fighting on for their recognition. In September 2015, The newly promulgated constitution of Nepal introduced a special provision for sexual minorities but the group has been demanding for complete its implementation.
