Nepal PM jumps before the push

-

Nepal’s prime minister has resigned before facing a confidence vote in parliament he expected to lose.

Khadga Prasad Oli, pictured, said the way he was forced to resign would have far-reaching implicatio­ns for the country and lead to further political instabilit­y. Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal is now expected to try to form a new coalition government.
