Sapana Roka Magar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sapana Roka Magar (Nepali: सपना रोका मगर) is a Nepalese crematorium worker, who was selected as one of the 100 most influential women of 2020 by the BBC. She is involved in the cremation of abandoned bodies[1] from the street or mortuaries and arranges for them to be taken to hospital for post-mortem examinations. If the body remains unclaimed for more than 35 days, the cremation is performed according to Hindu rituals.[2]
