Nepal gets the first PMF after fatal disturbances

She became the former head of the Nepal Susha Sushla Carki, the country’s interim prime minister, after she toppled the deadly protests to combat corruption.

Karki, 73, was sworn in a short party, becoming the first woman to lead the poor nation in the Himalayas after reaching a deal with protest leaders.

More than 50 people were killed in clashes with the riot police during the mass protests for this week, which was banned on social media platforms.

The ban was lifted on Monday – but by that time, the protests swollen into a mass movement. The angry crowds set fire to parliament and government buildings in the capital, Kathmandu, on Tuesdayand Forced Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli to resign.

Earlier on Friday, the Press Adviser Ram Chandra Bodel for the BBC will take the right of his position in the evening.

The agreement was reached between the president and the protest leaders after days of consultations. Legal experts also participated.

Parliament is expected to be dissolved soon.

Karki is widely considered as a clean image, and is supported by student leaders from the so -called “Gen Z” to lead the interim government.

On Tuesday, she visited the protest site in Kathmandu, where 19 people were killed in clashes with the police the day before. She also met some of the injured who were treated in the hospital.

Karki was born in a family with close contacts with the Koirla political dynasty from the country’s largest democratic party in Nepalese, and later married to the leader party at the time Durga Suledi.

She said that her husband’s support played a major role in her journey from a lawyer to the chief judge in Nepal in 2016.

But Karki was not free of controversy, as she even faced the dismissal incident during a period of nearly 11 months of judges.

The Nepal army has deployed patrols in the streets of Kathmandu, where the country wanders its worst disturbances in decades.

These protests resulted in the government’s decision last week to ban 26 social media platforms, including WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook – but soon expanded to embody much deeper discontent than the political elite of Nepal.

In the weeks before the embargo, the “Nebu Kid” campaign, which highlights the lifestyle of the children of politicians and allegations of corruption, was launched on social media.

While the social media ban was hurriedly lifted on Monday evening, the protests at that stage gained an irreversible momentum.
