Hello and welcome to NewsHour from the BBC World Service coming to live from London with me, Sean Lay.

At the end of a week in which youth protests and attempts to curtail them brought the collapse of Nepal's government,

the former Chief Justice appointed as interim Prime Minister is herself facing criticism because Parliament has been dissolved.

So Sheila Kaka wants to use the six months before fresh elections to tackle the corruption

and lack of economic opportunity the young protesters were so angry about.

But other politicians say ignoring the Constitution is not the way to make things better.

BBC's Samira Hussein is in the capital, Capandu.

Eight different opposition political parties have just put out a statement saying that they absolutely

disagree with the fact that Parliament was dissolved.

And why this is significant is because collectively they hold about two-thirds of a majority in what was the previous parliament.

The challenge, of course, is that this newly appointed prime minister, Sushilakarki, is in this difficult position.

On the one hand, she needs to meet the demands of the Gen Z protesters.

But on the other, she's certainly taking to heart the fact that there is already such strong political opposition to some of her initial moves in office.

So now the question is, what will she do about it?

between the prime minister and these opposition parties,

but in terms of changing what has immediately been done,

that seems somewhat unlikely,

just given the demands that are being made

by these Gen Z protest movement.

The former Chief Justice, Susilikarki, who's the new interim prime minister,

how has she begun her new time in office?
