Former Finance Minister Bishnu Paudel attends a party program organized at the CPN-UML headquarters in Lalitpur, Nepal, on October 18, 2025, where party chairman KP Sharma Oli is also present for the first time since the Gen-Z protest. It is the first time since the September 8 Gen-Z uprising that Oli visits his party office. The Communist Party of Nepal- Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) party office is burnt to ashes by the agitated protestors the following day after 21 people are killed on September 8 by police. Oli is in hiding for about 10 days and resurfaces since last month. He denounces the election called for March 5, 2026, by the interim government of Sushila Karki. The CPN-UML Chair claims that an election environment cannot be created without dialogue among political parties. Oli remarks that it is difficult to hold elections when around 1,200 weapons and over 100,000 bullets have been looted and about 5,500 prisoners are still at large. The communist leader also reiterates that reinstating the dissolved House of Representatives remains his party's position and urges party members to move forward confidently, following the party's policy.
