Nepal's political stability is under threat as President Ram Chandra Paudel's decision to dissolve the parliament has drawn fierce criticism. Major parties and the Nepal Bar Association denounced the move as unconstitutional.

The dissolution, recommended by interim Prime Minister Sushila Karki, is scheduled for March 5, 2026. Parties, including the Nepali Congress and CPN-UML, voice concerns against this action.
