KATHMANDU: Decked up in Daura-Suruwal, Nepal’s national dress, the newly-appointed Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal has taken the oath of office and secrecy from President Bidya Devi Bhandari at Shital Niwas on Monday.
A former Maoist leader who led a decade-long rebellion against Nepal’s monarchy has been appointed prime minister for a third time, in alliance with the main opposition after last month’s election returned a hung parliament.
This is perhaps the first time that PM Dahal has attended a public function wearing Daura-Suruwal.
The Chairman of CPN (Maoist Centre), the newly-appointed Prime Minister Dahal, has garnered the support of 169 members of the House of Representatives.
