Prime Minister Oli has formed a small cabinet incorporating two Deputy Prime Ministers and five ministers. Bijay Kumar Gachhadar and Kamal Thapa were sworn in as Deputy Prime Ministers. The two are said to have been rewarded for their support to Oli in Parliament. Oli, who will now have to deal with challenges like protests and blockade of a key border trade point with India over the country’s new Constitution, was yesterday elected as Nepal’s new Prime Minister after comfortably defeating former premier and Nepali Congress chief Sushil Koirala.
