Nepal PM Secures Vote Of Confidence For Third Time

Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal of Nepal is standing at the rostrum of the Federal Parliament of Nepal, answering questions raised by lawmakers ahead of his third vote of confidence on March 13, 2024. He is testing the floor for the third time following the constitutional provision stated in the Constitution of Nepal 2072's Article 100 Sub-section (2), which mandates a Prime Minister to prove a majority in case any parties in the coalition walk out. In this third vote of confidence, which comes within 15 months of Dahal's tenure as Prime Minister, he has secured 157 votes in favor, while 110 lawmakers have stood against the vote of confidence. One lawmaker in the Nepali federal parliament has remained abstained, with a total of 268 votes being cast. Making a surprise turn on March 4, Prime Minister Dahal decided to revive a coalition with the CPN-UML, which caught the largest coalition partner, NC, off guard. A new coalition including the CPN-UML, CPN-Maoist Center, Rastriya Swatantra Party, and Janata Sam
