In Kailali, deputy mayors and vice-chairs are now on the threshold of becoming chiefs of municipalities.
Stating that women also are capable of leading in any situation, they are preparing to become chiefs of the municipalities. Most women were elected as deputy mayor and vice-chair in local level elections held in 2017. There are few women at local levels. As a result, an illusion has been created that the post of deputy mayor or vice-president is for women only.
