Ram Kumari Jhakri (Nepali: रामकुमारी झाँक्री) is a Nepalese politician and secretary of CPN (Unified Socialist). She is also the former Minister of Urban Development. She is a major source of inspiration of Nepalese women.

She currently serves as a member of House of Representatives. She supports reservation for women in the civil service. On August 21, she has announced that she will be candidate from Gulmi . Announcing with a poster on social media, she said that she will break the legacy of UML and show it. Jhankri said she would be the candidate from Gulmi 2 from the 5 party alliance.[2]

Controversial statements[edit]

On 4 May 2019, she gave an interview to the talk show Janata Janna Chahanchhan (translation:People Want to Know) on Prime Times Television, in which she criticised her own party leader and prime minister KP Sharma Oli on the government's program for the fiscal year 2019-20. She said the prime minister's programs were an insult to republicanism.[3] She had also been critical of finance minister Yubaraj Khatiwada in the past.[4]

Early political career[edit]

She is the first woman to be elected president of a major party affiliate student union. As the president of ANNFSU, she was one of the central figures protesting during the 2006 democracy movement in Nepal.[5]
