Celebration All Across Nepal, As Balen’s Party Claims “Two-third Majority” In The Ongoing Nepal Parliamentary Election
Supporters of Balendra Shah (Balen) ring the bell, the election symbol of the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) affiliated with the former mayor, as they take part in the victory parade on the outskirts of Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 6, 2026. Balendra Shah (Balen), the former rapper and mayor of Kathmandu, is poised to become the next Prime Minister after a clean sweep in the election held in the wake of September's Gen-Z protest, which topples the government led by KP Sharma Oli. The two-day protest sees the death of at least 77 protestors after police open fire on the protestors, who are mainly college students and the public. The March 5 election, which comes after a gap of six months, records a preliminary voter turnout of about 60 percent and is expected to be a new dawn for Nepal. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
