Nepal’s newly elected parliament is sworn in months after a youth-led revolt - AP News

Nepal's newly elected parliament was sworn in following months of political upheaval triggered by a youth-led revolt. The swearing-in marks a formal transition of power after the popular uprising forced significant political changes in the Himalayan nation. The ceremony represents an attempt to restore institutional stability and establish a new governing framework following the street demonstrations that shook the country's political establishment. Nepal has experienced repeated cycles of constitutional crises and government instability in recent years, making the parliamentary transition a critical test of whether the new assembly can deliver on reform demands that fueled the youth movement. The composition and priorities of the newly sworn-in parliament will likely determine whether the administration addresses grievances that sparked the original revolt.
