Cikk tartalma röviden

Nepal's youngest prime minister, Balendra Shah, took office after his party's landslide victory in the elections, following a youth-led uprising that ousted the previous government. Shah, a political outsider and former mayor of Kathmandu, faces the challenge of addressing public frustration with established parties. His swearing-in ceremony included Hindu rituals and was timed according to auspicious astrological calculations. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated him, emphasizing the trust of the Nepalese people in his leadership.
