A total of 4,008 Verified Minors and Late Recruits (VMLRs) were to be discharged under the AMAA.Upon completion of the discharge of the
Verified Minors and Late Recruits (VMLRs),the Government of Nepal requested the UN to facilitate their rehabilitation into civilian life. From 2010, UNDP led an interagency programme with the participation of UNICEF, UNFPA and ILO, the UN Interagency Rehabilitation Programme (UNIRP) to rehabilitate these VMLRs.
It formally concluded in 2013 after providing support to 2,234 VMLRs out of the total 4,008.
