Apr 20, Kathmandu- More than 23,000 incidents related to registration have been registered under the incident registration campaign conducted by the government.

Dilkumar Tamang, director of the registration branch where the incident was registered, informed that as part of the campaign conducted from Baisakh 1st till yesterday, 14 thousand one hundred and sixty nine births, four thousand one hundred six marriages, three hundred ten divorces, one thousand eight hundred fifty migrations and two thousand eight hundred and forty one deaths, 23,276.

Tamang said that even if the awareness campaign is conducted in the first week of Baisakh, incidents can always be registered on the opening day of the office.

Meanwhile, due to lack of legal identity, many cases of street children have not been registered. Meanwhile, an NGO working in the field of street children, said that there is a problem in registering the incident due to the lack of identification of their homes and parents.

Kabita Shah, program manager of the organization, said that although the municipality is taking initiatives to register the births of street children, there is a problem in obtaining legal identification. After the promulgation of Citizenship Act 2063 (First Amendment 2079), it is easy for single women to obtain citizenship, but there is difficulty in the absence of an identity person for street children whose father and mother are not identified. Even the government does not have accurate information about how many children are without parents.
