The study area and Chamar community were chosen purposively and respondents (i.e. 15-49 years Chamar women having at least on child) were taken by census method and interviewed through structured and semi- structured interview schedule. Majority of the respondents had adopted early marriage, premature pregnancy, higher fertility and child loss experiences. Nearly one fourth o fourth respondents had an appropriate concept of family planning. Illiteracy has been one of he vital cause for their high fertility level because of their early marriage and less awareness about family planning etc. But by the study it is seen that even some of the educated Chamar hesitate and do not use contraceptives because they have the deep rooted belief that children are the gift of god, therefore, not only the education for the uneducated but also the awareness about the demerits of populations growth and early marriage should be provided through NGOs, INGOs and even from the government sector, and it will, of course, result in diminishing their high fertility level and their life will ultimately become easier and more comfortable.Item Impacts of Remittance on Livelihood of Chamar Community (A Case Study of Bhuchakrapur VDC, Dhanusha District)(Department of Sociology, 2016) Mishra, Yas KumarNot availableItem Lifeworld of Chamar Community in Nepal: A Study of Mahuwan Village in Sakhuwaparsauni Rural Municipality of Parsa District(Department of Rural Development, 2023) Srivastav, AnjaliThe study entitled “the lifeworld of the Chamar community in Sakhuwaparsauni RM-6 Mahuwan, Parsa District, Nepal”.
