As per details, Sher Bahadur Deuba, Nepal's prime minister, received 165 votes in the House of Representatives on Sunday.
Deuba secured 165 votes in his favor, while 83 votes were cast against him. Likewise, one lawmaker remained neutral. Meanwhile, 249 lawmakers had participated in the voting process.
Sher Bahadur was supported by his own Nepali Congress, the Nepal Communist Party (Maoist Centre), the Janata Samajbadi Party, as well as some lawmakers from main opposition Nepal Communist Party-UML whose chair is his predecessor, K.P. Sharma Oli.
Deuba was appointed Prime Minister of Nepal last Tuesday after the Supreme Court overturned Oli's decision to dissolve the House of Representatives on May 21, and reinstated the house.
The Constitution makes it mandatory that a Prime Minister appointed under Article 76(5) secures a vote of confidence within 30 days of appointment.
