Why “The Leader” came to a halt?
While the show was processing, COVID-19 pandemic broke out giving pause to everything including this show. Now that the pandemic is somewhat in control, the program was supposed to resume. Nevertheless, the host of this show Rabi Lamichhane has now entered in politics which is the recent reason of stoppage of “The Leader”. The show has yet to determine whether to cancel the entire show or hire a new host.
