Leader of the Communist Party of Nepal (United Marxist Leninist) Madhav Kumar Nepal, center wearing cap, greets people at the Parliament in Katmandu, Nepal, Friday, May 22, 2009. The veteran communist leader, who is so far the only one who has announced plans to contest for the position of the prime minister, is likely to be elected as he has the support of 350 members in the 601-seat parliament. Nepalese lawmakers will vote for a new prime minister on Saturday that could end weeks of political turmoil in this Himalayan nation. (AP Photo/Gemunu Amarasinghe)
