Sati practice was abolished by the British colonial government in India through legislative measures enacted from 1829 to 1832. Lord William Bentinck, the Governor-General of India at the time, played a key role in banning this practice, which involved the immolation of widows on their husband's funeral pyre.
Kamaiya pratha refers to the traditional system of bonded labor in Nepal, where individuals are compelled to work for landowners in exchange for very low wages or in-kind payments. The practice has been officially abolished, but remnants of it still exist in some parts of the country.
