Nepal's Prime Minister, Khadga Prasad Oli, has resigned from his post just minutes before facing a no confidence vote he was expected to lose.

Oli, 64, was forced to quit on Sunday after allies of his multi-party coalition deserted the government, accusing him of not honouring power sharing deals that helped install him as prime minister nine months ago.

[...] Oli swept to power in October 2015, but has faced fierce criticism over his handling of protests in the impoverished quake-hit nation.

More than 50 people died in clashes between police and protesters in December, who rallied against a constitution they said left them politically marginalised.

    Is that a double negative?
