Chief Justice Regmi to head Nepal’s interim government

63-year-old Khil Raj Regmi, the chief justice of the Supreme Court, will take charge as the head of an interim unity government in Nepal on Thursday.

“Political parties have handed an agreement to the president to remove constitutional hurdles and appoint the chief justice as chairman of the interim election council of ministers,” Deputy Prime Minister Narayan Kaji Shrestha told Reuters.

This will end political deadlock in Nepal ahead of upcoming national elections.
Regmi replaces Maoist Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai.
