Days after the protest broke out in Nepal, the country is set to have a new prime minister on September 14. The newly appointed interim Prime Minister of Nepal, Sushila Karki, is set to formally assume charge of office on Sunday. As reported by news agency ANI, Sushila Singh Karki is also likely to announce the expansion of her cabinet the same day, sources related to this development said.

Earlier on Friday, the 73-year-old former Chief Justice of Nepal was sworn in as the interim Prime Minister. The formation of the new government happened because of the widespread Nepal Gen Z protest, due to frustration over political stagnation, corruption, and economic disparity, triggered by the ban of social media platforms in the country.
