Ex-PM Oli's party mobilizes thousands in Nepal's largest post-Gen Z rally

  • Former PM K.P. Sharma Oli's party (CPN-UML) held a massive rally in Bhaktapur, Nepal, drawing tens of thousands of supporters.
  • The rally was the largest political gathering in Nepal since the youth-led Gen Z anti-corruption protests three months prior.
  • Oli, removed during Gen Z unrest, slammed the interim government's "unconstitutional" dissolution of parliament and denied being "anti-Gen Z."
  • The CPN-UML rally launched a three-day convention and built up to internal party elections for a new president, who will lead into 2026 parliamentary elections.

Why It Matters: Ex-PM Oli's massive rally indicates a significant political resurgence in Nepal.
