Nepal Politics

Nepali Prime Minister and Chairman of the Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist Center (CPN-MC), Pushpa Kamal Dahal (right), and Netra Bikram Chand, also known as Biplav (left), a former rebel leader, are attending a public gathering in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 4, 2024. Dahal, whose nom de guerre is Prachanda, meaning "fierce," is a former guerilla leader who entered mainstream Nepali politics about two decades ago. He has recently forged a new alliance with another Communist Party, the CPN-UML (Communist Party of Nepal- Unified Marxist Leninist), severing relations with the Nepali Congress, the oldest and the largest seat-holding party in the Federal Parliament of Nepal. Dahal is justifying his move to change coalitions by claiming that the Maoists will thrive in upheaval and stating that this will continue in the Himalayan nation as long as he remains in politics.
