Sudhan Gurung represents Gorkha-1 in the House of Representatives for Rastriya Swatantra Party, after winning the seat in Nepal's 2026 general election. Sudhan Gurung (born 18 July 1987) is a Nepalese politician, disc jockey, social activist, and entrepreneur who has served as the Minister of Home Affairs of Nepal since 9 June 2026. He previously held the same office from 27 March 2026 to 22 April 2026, resigning after controversy over financial conduct. He is a member of parliament from Gorkha 1. He is also the founder and coordinator of the non-governmental organization Hami Nepal. He emerged as one of the leaders of the Gen Z movement in the aftermath of the 2025 Nepalese Gen Z protests. He participated in extensive negotiations with the President and the Chief of the Army staff Ashok Raj Sigdel, which led to finalisation of former Chief Justice Sushila Karki as interim prime minister and dissolution of parliament, paving the way for early election. On the night of 14 September 2025, Gurung led protests against interim prime minister Karki demanding her resignation, alleging that she was expanding her cabinet without consultation. Gurung's ideological beliefs include anti-corruption measures, secularism, systemic reform and empowerment of the new generation. Gurung does not follow any particular religion and instead promotes the "religion of humanity" philosophical view. He ran in the 2026 Nepalese general election with the Rastriya Swatantra Party, winning a parliamentary seat from constituency Gorkha 1.
