Balen Shah Takes Charge as Nepal's Prime Minister, PM Modi Congratulates | Vantage on Firstpost

This is an AI-generated summary and has not been vetted by the Firstpost editorial team
Balendra Shah has been sworn in as Nepal's prime minister following a decisive electoral victory for the Rastriya Swatantra Party. His rise comes after days of unrest in 2025, during which at least 77 people were killed in protests against corruption and political instability. Nepal has seen 14 prime ministers in 18 years. Shah, a former Kathmandu mayor, now faces economic challenges, job shortages, and demands for accountability over the protest crackdown. India has congratulated the new government, highlighting bilateral ties. Shah is expected to balance relations with both India and China while leading a relatively new political party into government.
