Nepal’s general elections, scheduled for March 5, 2026, remain uncertain due to political unrest and constitutional challenges. The dissolution of the House, legal petitions, and demands for reforms by youth and activist groups are creating delays and questioning the timing of the polls.

Various political factions remain divided, and the Supreme Court is yet to rule on key petitions that seek restoration of the dissolved Parliament. The government led by Prime Minister Sushila Karki faces challenges in implementing demanded electoral reforms before the polls.

The political instability underscores Nepal’s complex democratic evolution and the need for constitutional amendments to ensure a stable electoral process. The elections may be delayed depending on legal and political outcomes.
