Apex of Slavery Mentality in the Ruled Class Community in Nepal and its Impacts on Youth’s Education

This study has tried to explore the prevalence of slavery mentality in the Madheshi community in Nepal in general and its impacts on the realisation of the potential of the youth in the globalised era specifically. It sheds light a bit more on the historical and cultural aspect and more on the political scenario of the state that has always tried to keep people enslaved. The purposes of this study are to find the causes of mental slavery in the ruled class society and its impacts on all social dimensions. Though the study lacks sufficient engagement with existing scholarly research and theoretical framing, it has moved ahead by applying the principles of an exploratory study exclusively on the Madheshi community and their perception of freedom in their personal and social life. The issues explored in the study are all public discourses, which have been interpreted in line with the scholarly ideology in this arena. It concludes that mental slavery is more prevalent in the ruled class community, which is the biggest hindrance to one's self-actualisation in a society. The freer a society is, the better the youth they are.
