Another coalition

The clock has started ticking for the three major parties, after the President gave them one week’s time, to choose a new Prime Minister (PM) on the basis of political consensus “Prez gives parties one week to find consensus PM” (THT, 26 July, Page 1). There was some hue and cry situation in the parliament after PM Oli decided first to face the no confidence motion registered by CPN-Maoist Centre and NC. However, he changed his mind later and tendered his resignation.

Time has come for the Big Three to show their political acumen keeping the nation and its people at the centre stage. So far, they have not shown any political sincerity towards addressing the national interest just because of their egoistic and self-centred politics. And, judging by their past political attitudes and existing political polarizations among them, the formation of a consensus government seems to be a distant possibility.

The next coalition government supposedly to be first led by Prachanda will not have, for sure, pleasure time. It needs to swiftly act to bring the agitating forces on the negotiating table and resolve the outstanding political and constitution problems. The delayed reconstruction programme should be geared up without wasting any more time.

Causes and consequences of self-immolation

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 .

A Legend Falls: Remembering Mountaineering Icon Nirmal Purja

The mountaineering world has lost one of its brightest, most unstoppable lights. It is with a profoundly heavy heart that I wish to express my profound grief over the tragic passing of Nirmal “Nimsdai” Purja, who lost his life alongside his brave crew in a devastating avalanche on Broad Peak, Pakistan. To say Nimsdai was a legend is an understatement. He was a force of nature who redefined the absolute limits of human endurance and capability. From shattering world records by climbing all 14 of the world’s highest peaks in just six months, to leading the historic first winter ascent of K2, he showed the world that "nothing is impossible." More importantly, he brought long-overdue pride, global recognition, and respect to the Nepali climbing and Sherpa community. Nims now rests eternally among the giant peaks he loved and conquered so fiercely. His fearless spirit, boundless energy, and ultimate motto—"Giving up is not in the blood"—will live on forever in the h...
