Tussle between executive and judiciary

Prime Minister Balendra (Balen) Shah’s decision, a few days ago, to recommend the fourth-in-line justice, Dr Manoj Kumar Sharma , as Nepal’s next chief justice has been the talk of the town and become unending debate over the judicial independence. His supporters and well-wishers take the move as a long-overdue challenge to the deep-rooted culture of political bargaining and setting in the state affairs including judiciary.    Some constitutional experts argue that seniority should not become a rigid and an untouchable rule. The Constitution does not require the senior-most justice to become chief justice. Balen’s recommendation for Sharma as the next Chief Justice considering the political connections of Malla, Regmi and Phuyal has been welcomed by the larger populations. Some constitutional experts opine that Malla had been a Constituent Assembly member on a UML ticket, while Phuyal had served as attorney general during UML rule and Regmi is close to the Nepali Congres...

Adieu to Asha Bhosle

  One of the giants of the Indian movie and music industries has died. Asha Bhosle, who gave voice to hundreds of movie characters as a Bollywood playback singer, died of cardiac arrest on Sunday, 13 April, at the age of 92. Her voice had an infectious quality that kept fans on their feet, dancing and singing along, ensuring that her music became the soundtrack to generations. While Asha earned her reputation singing the roles of virtuous heroines, she specialized in saucier characters, such as in one of her most famous songs, "Dum Maro Dum." By Bhosle's own estimation, she recorded around 12,000 songs over a career that spanned about eight decades. She even has sung some Nepali songs winning the heart of millions of Nepali people. We pray Almighty Lord for her heavenly abode and our deepest condolences to her bereaved family.🙏🙏

Balen Shah was sworn in as Nepal's youngest Prime Minister on March 27, 2026, at the age of 35, following a landslide victory by his Rastriya Swatantra Party ( RSP ). He was, taking the advantage of widespread public anger against corruption and nepotism   after a violent Gen-Z-led uprising ,  able to lure voters towards him and the party, securing 182 out of 275 seats, almost two third majority in the history of national politics.
