Political career
His party started a revolutionary People's War in Nepal in 1996 that ultimately led to the change of the political system in Nepal. The decade long civil war transformed Nepal from a monarchy into a republic. He was elected to the Nepalese Constituent Assembly from Lalitpur District in 2008 and became Minister for Peace and Reconstruction in the cabinet formed on 13 February 2011.[1]
