Monitor notes:
Completed in first cabinet meeting itself.
What is this?
The government will convene formal discussions with leaders of all major political parties — including opposition — to build consensus on contentious national issues like federalism, power-sharing, electoral reform, and identity-based demands that have divided Nepal for decades.
Impact on people
When parties agree on foundational governance issues, political instability decreases. Fewer government collapses mean more consistent policy implementation, stable markets, and uninterrupted public services for 30 million citizens.
Why it matters
Nepal has seen 14 governments in 16 years. Every collapse disrupts development projects, foreign investment, and basic service delivery. Without cross-party consensus, the cycle of instability continues.
