Balendra Shah shakes hands with President Ram Chandra Paudel after taking the oath of office as Prime Minister of Nepal during a ceremony in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 27, 2026. Shah, a rapper-turned-politician and structural engineer, becomes the youngest Prime Minister of Nepal. He was appointed following the March 2026 general elections in which the Rastriya Swatantra Party secured a parliamentary majority. The elections followed months of political unrest in 2025 that led to the resignation of the previous government and the formation of an interim administration.
