Abstract

This research paper deals with the concept of Federalism, its impact on Nepal and how Nepal is facing the Problematic Aspects of Implementing a Federal System in Nepal. This study uses reviews, personal correspondence, and news articles to show that Nepal transitioned from its long-standing feudal system to a federal one. By delegating responsibilities and powers to the state and local governments from the central government, local government officials can make decisions that are better suited to the needs of the local population. The political transition in Nepal has not been without its challenges. The Nepali federal system has been in development for a long time and has made a lot of progress, but it is still susceptible to instability and has some holes, especially for making it work. Thus, the transformation to the democratic federal system has been a topic of concern for Nepal.

 

Keywords: Federalism, Feudal System, local and provincial governments, Central government, local populations, subnational actors, political transition, issues and challenges.
