Nepal’s prime minister on Monday selected three new ministers to join her interim administration, which is tasked with holding fresh elections in March after violent street protests last week led to the collapse of the previous government. Sushila Karki, the Himalayan country’s first woman prime minister, appointed Kulman Ghising as Energy Minister, Rameshore Khanal as Finance Minister and Om Prakash Aryal as Home Minister. Karki, 73, was named prime minister on September 12.
