KATHMANDU: Nepal's Supreme Court ruled on Friday that deputy prime minister Rabi Lamichhane had stood for election with invalid citizenship papers, annulling his status as a lawmaker and effectively removing him from office.

The departure of the minister was unlikely to affect the future of the ruling alliance, political analyst Krishna Khanal said.
