The party of 35-year-old rapper and ex-Kathmandu mayor Balendra Shah is on course to win a landslide majority in Nepal’s parliament.
 
The win marks the first time in decades that a single party has garnered a majority in Nepal.
 
The general election came six months after youth anger over elite rule, nepotism, corruption and inequality which sparked deadly protests.
