Nepal President Bidya Devi Bhandari i has dissolved the House of Representatives and announced mid-term polls on November 12.
She determined that both embattled Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and the Opposition alliance were not in a position to form a government.
Bhandari’s announcement came after Prime Minister Oli recommended dissolution of the 275-member House following an emergency midnight Cabinet meeting.
Last year on December 20, President Bhandari had dissolved Parliament but later it was reinstated by the Supreme Court in February.
