Announcing Oli\u2019s appointment, the President Office has issued a statement, wherein, it said Oli\u2019s appointment has been made based on the majority his candidature has won from the parties represented in the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n
The Communist Alliance, CPN UML and CPN-MC, has received a comfortable majority in the 275-member House of Representatives in the recently-concluded Nepal General Elections 2017<\/a>.<\/p>\n Having emerged as the largest political party in the recent elections, Oli-led CPN-UML party has gained all the required support and claimed to form the new Nepali Government in partnership with the CPN-MC party led by Pushpa Kumar Dahal.<\/p>\n This is the second time that Oli is serving as the Nepal PM after October 2015 when he was appointed as the 38th<\/sup> PM of the country following the promulgation of the new Nepal Constitution in September 2015.<\/p>\n Oli\u2019s appointment, back again to the post, is coming at a time when the country is witnessing a transformation to a Federal form of governance as recommended by the new constitution.<\/p>\n In a move encouraging a healthy political environment in the country, Oli promised to review all the decisions, of national interest, put forth by the earlier government led by Sher Bahadur Deuba.<\/p>\n Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Oli on his appointment as the new Prime Minister of Nepal and extended government\u2019s possible support for the overall development of Nepal.<\/p>\n Chinese Prime Minister had also congratulated Oli expressing China\u2019s willingness to further strengthening of Sino-Nepal ties.<\/p>\n Congratulating Oli on his appointment as the new Nepal PM, the United States Ambassador to Nepal Alaina B Teplitz tweeted, \u201cWe look forward to continuing our work with the new government to build a more democratic, prosperous, and stable Nepal.\u201d<\/p>\n In another message, Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina also said, \u201cThe citizens\u2019 trust placed in you for the second time demonstrates the high evaluation of your efforts for their welfare. I look forward to closely cooperating with your government for assuring peace and prosperity for the peoples of our region.\u201d<\/p>\n The major tasks ahead for Oli include ensuring stable governance while also maintaining balance in the international relations as Nepal shares borders with the two Asian giants India and China.<\/p>\n Besides, the implementation of new Nepal Constitution is another issue on priority for the new Nepali Government.<\/p>\n Though the Left parties were often referred to as pro-China, Oli\u2019s stance towards governance and policy-making appears balanced with a similar level of cordial relationship with India as well.<\/p>\n This was evident in the recent high-profile visits of Indian officials such as Indian Minister Sushma Swaraj, Indian Army Chief Bipin Rawat, among others to Nepal and Indian Prime Minister Narendra\u2019s conversation with Oli over his candidature to the PM post.<\/p>\n “Oli<\/a> is going to be pragmatic as prime minister to balance India and China,” Editor of a Nepal-based media house reportedly said in a statement.<\/p>\n Oli-led new Nepali Government has a special focus on strengthening of bilateral ties and diplomatic relations with the neighboring nations based on the independent foreign policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cAs per the directions made by the Nepali Constitution, we will develop the relation with friendly nations, especially the neighboring countries, international unions and organizations, on the basis of independent foreign policy,\u201d the Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) and Maoist Centre (CPN-MC) said in a statement on December 17, 2017.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Indo-Nepal ties are not just about government-to-government relations, but about people-to-people ties. India will work with any party that comes to power in Kathmandu. Similarly, the Nepal of PM will work with Delhi irrespective of his ideology. India remains a key factor in Nepali politics<\/a>, society and religion and this fact cannot be ignored,\u201d a Nepal-focused political expert said in a statement earlier this month.<\/p>\n With regard to Indo-Nepal ties, Oli said, \u201cAs one of the recently elected people\u2019s representatives and leader of the largest party in the federal parliament, I\u2019m eager to work together with Excellency and your government for the betterment of our two countries.\u201d <\/p>\n \u201cThe election of representatives at all levels of government should set the stage for responsive governance based on the principles of transparency, inclusivity, and rule of law,\u201d the US Department of State Spokesperson Heather Nauert had said in a statement expressing US\u2019 willingness to work in collaboration with the new Government of Nepal.<\/p>\n Implementation of new Constitution is another matter on priority, on which, Oli said, \u201cEveryone has participated in the elections under the structure envisioned by the constitution and the results are accepted. Its shows, there is no confusion remaining over constitution.\u201d<\/p>\n Industrial development has also been on top of Oli\u2019s developmental agenda under the new governance. \u201cWe should accelerate our pace to the road of political and economic aspects of the country. Our aspirations, needs and plans should base development and prosperity,\u201d Oli had stated earlier at the 37th<\/sup> Annual General Assembly of the Management Association of Nepal in Kathmandu, earlier this week.<\/p>\n Oli looks at industrialization as the means to boost country\u2019s productivity and job creation.<\/p>\n Legalization of underground money is another item in Oli\u2019s priority list which he feels is utmost important for the country\u2019s overall development.<\/p>\n “Its legalization should be allowed. It should be allowed to be laundered. A way for laundering should be provided. I wish the hidden money could be invested. It could help idle people get employed. Maybe we can think about it?\u201d Oli had said in a statement earlier this month.<\/p>\n Oli was also keen on protection of child and human rights as part of successful governance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The long-awaited announcement over the appointment of new Nepal Prime Minister has finally been made on…<\/span><\/p>\nWorld Leaders Congratulate Oli<\/h4>\n
