Ambiguity

Ambiguity

The so called big III have again started dirty power politics at a time when they were supposed to be serious about the implementation of the new constitution. Blaming each other for not following the spirit of the new charter has openly surfaced in the current political situation. CPN (MC) was not happy with the way the Oli led government was running the country and used to threaten to leave the coalition government. Finally, it decided to do so after NC’c assurance to support it to form the new coalition government under its leadership.

So far, Oli does not seem arithmetically able to garner a majority in the parliament, however, has started playing dubious roles. He has been claiming that there is no clear constitutional provision for forming a new government which has been the crux of the constitutional problem inviting political confrontation between the ruling and the opposition parties interpreting article 298 of new constitution on their own ways “Deuba, Dahal urge PM Oli to follow Parliament’s norms” (THT, 19 July, Page 1). Both CPN (MC) and NC have registered a no-trust motion in the parliament against the Oli led government.

It seems that Oli is going to discredit his own party CPN-UML by not following the parliamentary provisions and new constitution when the other UML leaders are publicly saying that their party will follow the provisions made in the new constitution.

Causes and consequences of self-immolation

  Self-immolation—the act of setting oneself on fire—is one of the most extreme, painful, and lethal forms of self-harm and suicide. Globally, it represents a profound intersection of psychiatric distress, intense social strain, and political expression. Causes of Self-Immolation: The underlying motivations for self-immolation vary significantly across different regions, cultures, and socioeconomic demographics. ·      Political and Ideological Protest: In Western nations and certain East Asian histories, self-immolation is highly associated with political statement.

2083/84 budget at a glance The Balen led government , which is almost two-thirds majority government secured in the March 2026 elections , has announced its annual budget 2,124.34 billion on May 29, 2026, as the largest budget in Nepal's history, representing a 25.2 present increase over the revised estimates of the current fiscal year 2082/83.  Most of the financial experts and economic analysts opine that this budget, although optimistic, has broadly, boldly and wisely covered key and major aspects of the national all round development. Huge tax reforms , massive infrastructure allocations, transformative sectoral policies, 7 percent targets on economic growth and inflation capped at 6 per cent are the key aspects of the highly optimistic budget. This shows a departure from a decade of political instability toward productive governance. It has included first sovereign AI computing centre, doubling of personal income tax exemption thresholds , 21 percent civil servant sal...
