Whistle-blower A Nepalese women blows on a whistle during a protest demanding provision in the new constitution to avail citizenship in the name of one’s mother, in Kathmandu, Nepal, Tuesday. Nepal’s proposed new constitution has sparked fury from women who protested against the denial of citizenship rights to children if their fathers are not Nepalese citizens. While Nepal’s new constitution promises full citizenship to all children with one Nepalese parent, the laws are routinely flouted when only the mother is a citizen.
