India to host Nepal’s PM KP Sharma Oli
According to diplomatic sources further India is expected to host Nepal’s PM K.P. Sharma Oli later this month and that discussions are on.
Mr. Oli was one of the first regional leaders to condemn the terrorist attack in Pahalgam and, subsequently, India accommodated Nepalese citizens while airlifting stranded nationals from Iran against the backdrop of the Iran-Israel conflict.
Reportedly KP Sharma in recent months, has also lauded India for its support to the democratic process in post-monarchy Nepal.
Even as plans are underway for the visit, there are also internal political developments in Nepal that will be taken into consideration at the planning stage. On Wednesday (July 16, 2025), Janata Samajbadi Party-Nepal (JSP-N), withdrew support to Oli’s government, reducing the ruling coalition to a minority in the Upper House of the Nepalese Parliament — National Assembly.
Oli’s India proposed visit has acquired escalated attention as he was sworn in on July 15, 2024 but hasn’t visited India till now, but visited China in December last year.
