K P Sharma Oli on Monday was sworn in as Nepal's Prime Minister for the fourth time to lead a new coalition Government that faces the daunting challenge of providing political stability in the Himalayan nation.
The leader of Nepal's largest communist party was appointed as Prime Minister on Sunday by President Ram Chandra Paudel to lead the coalition Government with the Nepali Congress (NC), the largest party in Parliament, apart from other smaller parties.
Oli, 72, succeeds Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda,' who lost the vote of confidence in the House of Representatives (HoR) on Friday, leading to the formation of the new Government.
