Muskan Khatun has joined the Nepali Communist Party (NCP)

Acid attack survivor and human rights activist Muskan Khatun has officially entered politics by joining the Nepali Communist Party (NCP) on Thursday. She was warmly welcomed at a party unity ceremony held at the National Assembly Hall by party leaders including Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ and Madhav Kumar Nepal.

Muskan, a resident of Chapkaiya-3, Birgunj, was attacked with acid in September 2019 while going to school. The attack, carried out by two local boys after a rejected proposal, left her severely injured on the right side of her body.

After years of treatment and recovery, Muskan became a prominent human rights advocate, campaigning for victims of violence and acid attacks. NCP leaders announced she will be appointed a central member of the party. Her journey from tragedy to advocacy and now politics has inspired thousands across the country.
