Nepal returns to calm as first woman PM takes charge

KATMANDU: Nepal’s capital on Saturday took a step back toward normality after deadly anti-corruption protests, as daily life returned with a curfew eased and an interim prime minister sworn into office. Soldiers scaled back their presence on the streets, where they had been deployed in large numbers since Wednesday after violent demonstrations toppled the government and left parliament in flames. At least 51 people were killed in the worst unrest since the end of a decade-long civil war and the abolition of the monarchy in 2008.
