In a major change, Nepal’s political parties have agreed to remove the word “secularism” from the new constitution.
Nepal was declared a secular country in 2007 after Nepal’s hardcore Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist joined mainstream politics after a decade-long insurgency that killed over 13,000 people.
The decision ended Nepal’s century-old identity as the world’s only Hindu kingdom. Over 80 per cent of Nepal’s population is Hindu.

The political parties were forced to take a U-turn after millions of people, in their suggestions and feedback on the new constitution, called for the removal of the word “secularism”.
