Seven provinces were formed by grouping existing districts. The current seven-provincial system had replaced the previous system, in which Nepal was divided into 14 administrative zones, which were grouped into five development regions. Story Home article: Administrative Units Nepal Main article: A list of areas of Nepal Committee was formed to rebuild areas of Nepal on December 23, 1956 and after two weeks the report was submitted to the government. According to Nepalese Jill Prashasan Punargatanko Report, 2013 (Nepal Reconstruction Report, 1956), Nepal was first divided by a total of 7 Kshetras (district). These were the following Kshetras: Arun Kshetra Janakpur Kshetra Kathmandu Kshetra Kshetra Kapilaustu Kshetra Karnali Kshetra Kshekali Kshetra In 1962 all Kshetras were abolished and the country reorganized into 75 development areas and these areas were grouped into 14 zones. In 1972, all 14 zones clustered in 4 development regions, later in 1981 rebuilt zones into 5 development regions. The Eastern Development Region of the Western Region development of the Midwestern Region of Nepal Province Development Has been formed in accordance with Schedule 4 of the Nepal Constitution. Seven provinces were formed by a grouping of existing districts; two districts, Nawalparasi and Rukun, were divided between the two provinces. There are local units in each district. Nepal includes six megacities, 11 megacities, 276 municipal councils and 460 rural councils. The current system of seven provinces has replaced an earlier system in which Nepal was divided into 14 administrative zones, which were grouped into five development regions. In January 2016, the Nepalese government announced a temporary headquarters for seven provinces. According to article 295 (2), permanent provincial names will be determined by two thirds of the province's legislature. The provincial executive branch is held by the Provincial Council of Ministers in accordance with the Constitution and laws. The provincial executive is exercised by the provincial head in the absence of the provincial executive in the event of a state of emergency or enforcement of the federal rule. Each province has a ceremonial leader as a representative of the federal government. The president appoints a governor for each province. The Governor exercises the rights and responsibilities that must be fulfilled in the Constitution or laws. The Governor appoints the leader of the parliamentary party, the majority in the provincial assembly, the chief minister, and the Council of Ministers is formed under the leadership of the Chief Minister. Assembly Home article: Sabha Pradesh Sabha Pradesh or Provincial Assembly is a unicameral legislative assembly for the federal province. The term of office of the provincial assembly is five years, except when they have been dissolved previously. Candidates for each constituency are chosen by political parties or as independents. Each constituency elects one member according to the first past postal election system. Since Nepal uses a parallel voting system, voters hold another ballot to elect members through proportional representation on the party list. The current constitution stipulates that sixty per cent of members must be elected from the first past postal system and forty per cent through the party's list of proportional representation systems. Women should account for one third of the total number of members elected from each party, and if one third were not elected, the party that did not do so should elect one third of the total number of women through proportional representation on the party list. Party with common (more seats than all the other parties combined) after the election forms a government. If the party does not have a direct direct parties may seek to form coalitions.
