Nepalese authorities lifted the curfew in the country's capital and surrounding areas on Saturday as calm returned following the appointment of the Himalayan nation's first woman prime minister in the wake of protests this week that killed at least 51 people and collapsed the government.
In the capital, Kathmandu, and neighboring Lalitpur and Bhaktapur areas, officials told people they could move around freely while markets reopened and traffic returned on the streets.
