18 July 2025

Former Home Minister and chairman of CPN Unity National Campaign, Bamdev Gautam (Right), exchanges greetings with another communist leader, Ghanshyam Bhusal, following the unification announcement of two splinter communist parties in Kathmandu, Nepal, on July 18, 2025. The CPN- Unified Socialist, led by Madhav Kumar Nepal, and the CPN Unity National Campaign, led by Bamdev Gautam, announce their merger during a ceremony at City Hall in the capital, Kathmandu. With the merger, Bamdev Gautam, the campaign coordinator, formally joins the CPN- Unified Socialist, which forms after a split with CPN-Unified Marxist Leninist, led by KP Sharma Oli, following the intra-party rift. As per the merger agreement, Gautam, also a former Home Minister, receives the third most senior position in the Unified Socialist after party chair Madhav Kumar Nepal and senior leader Jhalanath Khanal. The Unified Socialist and the group led by Gautam split from the CPN-UML in 2021 and operate separately since. Over the past four years, both sides engage in formal and informal negotiations towards party reunification. In 2021, after breaking off from CPN-UML, both former Prime Ministers Madhav Kumar Nepal and Jhalanath Khanal form the CPN (Unified Socialist), while Gautam chooses not to join the new party. Gautam at the time launches his own CPN Unity National Campaign, announcing he will work to bring all the communist forces under a single umbrella by not joining any side, the CPN-UML, US, or the Maoist Center. Though multiple rounds of talks are initiated, agreements do not work out.

7 June 2025

Nepali Muslims exchange greetings of ''Eid Mubarak'' at a local mosque in Kathmandu, Nepal, on June 7, 2025, on the occasion of Eid-Al-Adha or Bakra Eid. Eid al-Adha is traditionally celebrated on the 70th day after Ramadan. Muslims begin the day with a ritual bath and then proceed to the nearest mosque or Idgah to offer prayers. Following the prayers, it is customary to exchange greetings with one another. According to Islamic belief, Ibrahim, who has long been childless, prays to Allah for a child and vows to sacrifice what he loves most if his wish is granted. When his son Ismail is born to his wife Hajra, Ibrahim's devotion is tested. In a dream, Allah commands him to sacrifice his son. As Ibrahim prepares to carry out the command, Allah intervenes and replaces Ismail with a ram from heaven, pleased with Ibrahim's unwavering faith. To commemorate this event, Muslims around the world continue the practice of animal sacrifice during Bakra Eid. The meat from the sacrificed animal is divided into three parts--one part is given to the poor and needy, another to relatives and friends, and the third is kept for the family. On the occasion of Bakra Eid, Muslims who are financially capable travel to Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia to perform the Hajj pilgrimage.
