In a landmark ruling, Nepal's Supreme Court has reinstated the dissolved parliament, and ordered the government to summon a House session within the next 13 days.
A Constitutional bench of Nepal's top court observed that the decision to dissolve the House was 'unconstitutional', as there still was a possibility of forming a new government.
The top court's move comes two months after Prime Minister K P Oli dissolved the House and called for an early election amid a tussle for power with his rivals in the ruling communist party.
The ruling means Oli, who was elected in 2018 following his party&rsquo;s landslide win in the 2017 elections, now faces a no-confidence vote once parliament resumes session.
