		</div><p>Tens of thousands of people in Nepal have protested against the prime minister for dissolving Parliament and ordering new elections in an escalating feud within the governing party.</p>
<p>The supporters of a splinter group in the Nepal Communist Party marched peacefully in the centre of Kathmandu as they demanded that Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Oli reinstate Parliament.</p>
<p>Security was tight in the capital, with barbed wire barriers and police in riot gear blocking the area around the main government offices.</p>
<p>Parliament was dissolved on December 20 at the direction of the prime minister and new elections were announced for April 30 and May 10 2021.</p>
<p>Mr Oli became prime minister after his Nepal Communist Party won elections three years ago. His party and the party of former Maoist rebels had earlier merged to form a unified Communist party.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>But tensions have grown between Mr Oli and the leader of the former rebels, Pushpa Kamal Dahal, who is also co-chairman of the party. The two had previously agreed that they would split the five-year prime minister’s term between them but Mr Oli has refused to allow Mr Dahal to take over.</p>
<p>The opposition has also accused Mr Oli’s government of corruption and his administration has faced criticism over its handling of the coronavirus outbreak.</p>
<p>Mr Oli has also been accused of moving closer to China and drifting away from Nepal’s traditional partner, India, since taking power.</p>
