Amid opposition protests, Nepal PM wins parliamentary vote of confidence
Nepal's prime minister won a parliamentary vote of confidence on Monday amid protests by the opposition demanding a parliamentary probe into allegations that his home minister illegally took money from several companies before he entered politics. Pushpa Kamal Dahal, a former Maoist rebel chief in the Himalayan nation sandwiched between China and India, formed a coalition cabinet in March with the support of the liberal Communist Unified Marxist-Leninist (UML) party and several smaller parties. A fresh vote of confidence became necessary after a junior partner in the coalition withdrew support following differences with the leader.
