Kathmandu: Nepal prime minister KP Sharma Oli was on Wednesday hospitalised in Sahid Gangalal National Heart Center in Kathmandu after he complained of chest pain.
His press advisor Surya Thapa tweeted on social media that the hospitalisation was a part of his regular health check-ups.
Of late, in Nepal, there has been an increasing demand for Oli to step down.
Oli had earlier called for a Cabinet meeting after leaders of ruling Nepal Communist Party demanded his resignation on Tuesday. The senior leaders, including co-chair Pushpa Kamal Dahal, Madhav Nepal, Jhalanath Khanal and Bamdev Gautam, asked the prime minister to step down from the post citing his ‘failure’ over various issues.
