This paper explores the intersection of development and political governance, investigating the consequences of the crisis on development governance, economic growth, public policy, and social development. This study employs a qualitative case study of the Nepalese political conflict from 1990 to 2006, drawing on primary and secondary sources, including government documents, reports from international organizations, academic journals, books, and news articles.
The findings suggest that flexible political evolution, beset by corruption, power struggles, and ineffective governance, contributes to the stagnation of development. A decrease in foreign investment, an economic slowdown, and social inequalities have all ensued as a result of the crisis, affecting various sectors, including financial, social, and infrastructural development.
The paper concludes that addressing the underlying issues that fuel the conflict, promoting inclusive governance, and supporting sustainable socio-economic development are crucial components for resolving the crisis and fostering stability and growth in Nepal.
