Pampha Bhusal, Vice Chair of the CPN-Maoist Center, arrives at the party office in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 21, 2025, to attend the party office bearers meeting. In the meeting, CPN-Maoist Center leader Pushpa Kamal Dahal, also known as Prachanda, proposes a special convention to elect new leadership, citing the current political context. Dahal also proposes to dissolve all party committees from the central to local level. Once approved, all existing party structures from the grassroots to the central level will be dissolved, and a General Convention Organizing Committee will be formed. The committee will be tasked with organizing the special general convention in December. Prachanda also proposes calling an emergency meeting of the Central Committee within a week to formally initiate the process. This comes in the wake of the Gen-Z revolution in the Himalayan Nation, which changes the political course where 74 people lose their lives when police use lethal force on protesting students.

Nepal Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli (center) attends the inauguration ceremony of Nepal's first overpass in Lalitpur, Nepal, on June 20, 2025. The overpass is built to ease chronic traffic congestion along the Koteshwar-Gwarko-Kalanki corridor of the Kathmandu Valley. Initiated in February 2022 under the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) model, the four-lane overpass is originally slated for completion in two years. From the Gwarko intersection, the structure spans 320 meters towards Koteshwar and 185 meters towards Satdobato, with both sides featuring four layers of blacktopping. The ramp stands 10.2 meters high. The project is awarded at a contract value of Rs176.68 million. Once operational, the contractor is responsible for the maintenance for the next five years.
