Constitution of Nepal
The 'New Constitution of Nepal-2015' has come into force. After years of political upheaval and conflicts in Nepal, a new constitution has been implemented on 20 September 2015. This constitution was prepared by the second Constituent Assembly after the failure of the first Constituent Assembly to produce a constitution in the mandatory period. In the Constitution of Nepal, all citizens have been given the freedom to practice their religion as per their wishes. The nature of the constitution of Nepal is considered to be multi-ethnic due to the diverse people living here.
According to the new constitution of Nepal,

- Nepali will continue to be the language of the nation. Ethnic languages have also been recognized, including all languages.
- The cow is the national animal and Rhodendron (Laligrass) is the national flower of Nepalese Hindus.
- Arrangements have been made for the empowerment of marginalized, regional, and caste communities through reservation and quota systems. Reservation has been made for indigenous people, Dalits, untouchables, and women at every level from local administration, provincial and federal government.
- The third gender (third gender) has also been recognized in the constitution.
- The constitution has declared Nepal as a secular state. But ancient religious and cultural beliefs will be preserved. There is no ban on conversion.
- In a country that is governed like a monarchy despite being a democracy, there is also a need for rebellion like the people of Nepal.
Nepal's Interim Constitution 2007
In April 2006, when King Gyanendra allowed all powers to be handed over to the Assembly of Representatives in Exile, all the parties together formed an interim government. The interim government was to take charge of governance and drafting the constitution. In the same episode, the interim constitution of Nepal was made. But some aspects of this interim constitution were controversial. That is why this constitution was not accepted by all Nepalese people. Finally, in 2015, a new constitution was framed, in which it was said to take everyone along.
