Marking a fresh beginning, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday (September 18, 2025) spoke with Sushila Karki, the newly appointed Prime Minister of Nepal’s interim administration, and condoled the loss of lives in last week’s protests.
Nepal’s President Ramchandra Paudel has announced that the country will hold elections on March 5, after the 275-seat parliament was dissolved. This decision follows a time of intense public protest and the appointment of Sushila Karki as the interim prime minister. Karki is the first woman to serve as head of government in Nepal.
Former Chief Justice Sushila Karki, who has been proposed by the Gen-G youth to lead the interim government of Nepal, on Thursday said that she is ready to work in the national interest. She also said that she is overwhelmed by the trust that the Nepalese youth have shown in her.
