Nepal’s Bagmati Province Ministers Told to Resign

Nepal’s ruling party has directed its ministers in Bagmati Province to resign. The move comes as the party’s provincial parliamentary leader, Jagganath Thapaliya, has already tendered his resignation and exited the government.

The development is seen as a widening rift in the ruling coalition between the Nepali Congress and the CPN-UML. The rift is likely to have significant implications for the stability of the provincial government.
