Nepal's Prime Minister steps down from office.

Nepal's Prime Minister, Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli, has resigned, marking a significant development in the ongoing political turmoil in the country. The Prime Minister's office confirmed the resignation, with a spokesperson making the announcement.

Oli's resignation comes as a response to the ongoing political unrest and the need for a political solution to the current situation. Thousands of protesters, mostly young people, have taken to the streets in demonstrations against the government's actions.

The political unrest in Nepal has been escalating, with protests targeting widespread corruption and the government's move to ban 26 online networks last week. The ban aimed to force these networks to register and come under state supervision, sparking strong criticism and leading to protests across Nepal. However, the government lifted the ban on online networks in the morning of the day this article was written.

At least 19 people have died in Kathmandu and other places during the protests.

With Oli's resignation, Sushila Karki has been appointed as the interim Prime Minister, making her Nepal's first female Prime Minister. It is important to note that this is not the first time Oli has held the position of Prime Minister, as he has held the position multiple times.

The resignation letter was submitted by Oli to President Ram Chandra Paudel, with Oli stating that he wanted to step down to pave the way for a political solution to the current situation in the country.

The political unrest and protests in Nepal continue, with the hope that the new leadership will bring about a resolution to the ongoing issues and restore peace and stability in the country.
