Kulman Ghising, the man credited with ending Nepal’s chronic power cuts, has now emerged as a frontrunner in the race for the country’s next prime minister. Known for his decisive leadership in energy reforms, Ghising’s rise from a technocrat to a political heavyweight has drawn attention both at home and abroad.
Ghising, who studied in India before returning to Nepal, transformed the Nepal Electricity Authority by implementing reforms that drastically reduced load-shedding and improved the supply of electricity across the nation. His reputation as a problem-solver and reformer has boosted his popularity among the public and positioned him as a credible candidate for higher political office.
Observers say Ghising’s potential entry into national politics signals a shift towards technocratic leadership in Nepal, where citizens are increasingly demanding results-oriented governance. His experience in energy reform is also seen as an asset for Nepal’s economic growth, with the country looking to harness hydropower for both domestic use and export.
If Ghising secures political backing, his leadership could reshape Nepal’s policy priorities, focusing on infrastructure, energy independence, and sustainable growth. His candidacy is being closely watched by regional players, including India, given his education background and cross-border energy cooperation initiatives.
As Nepal navigates political uncertainty, Ghising’s name has brought a fresh wave of optimism among citizens who hope for pragmatic leadership that can deliver real change.
