Federalism in Nepal

Federalism In Nepal

In the aftermath of the return of democracy to Nepal in the late 2000s and the abolition of the monarchy, regional decentralization and federalism has become a contentious topic of political debate at the national level.

Most Maoist parties in the Constituent Assembly, advocate for the extension of federalism on both an ethnic and administrative basis, while the Rastriya Janamorcha, a minority party in the Constituent Assembly, has come out in open opposition to the prospect of federalism.
