Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Sushila Karki on her appointment as Nepal’s first woman Prime Minister, following her oath amidst political turmoil after the resignation of K.P. Sharma Oli. Karki’s selection, while praised for her integrity and constitutional commitment, raises concerns due to her lack of eligibility under Nepali law, appointed instead under a principle of necessity. Analysts stress the importance of her temporary leadership and the need for fresh elections. Amidst ongoing protests demanding accountability for violence, Karki’s government faces the challenge of restoring stability and addressing the youth’s grievances regarding governance and corruption.
