Nepal’s former chief justice Sushila Karki is the leading choice for interim leader after the ousting of the veteran prime minister.
Army chief General Ashok Raj Sigdel held consultations with stakeholders and held a meeting with representatives of Gen Z.
The army is seeking to restore order in the Himalayan nation after the worst violence in two decades ousted the prime minister and left the parliament ablaze.
Karki has told AFP that “experts need to come together to figure out the way forward” and that “the parliament still stands.” However, the choice of the protesters, who are not one single party, is far from unanimous.
