Integrated Centre of Trade Unions, Nepal (ICTU) (Nepali: एकीकृत ट्रेड यूनियन महासंघ) is a confederation of 20 national trade union federations. It is politically tied to the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Socialist).[2][3][4]
Trade Unions have existed in Nepal since the All Nepal Trade Union Congress was formed in 1946, but only really came into power after the collapse of the Rana dynasty in 1951 and the movement towards democracy. ICTU itself was established in 2021 when a split occurred in the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist–Leninist).[5]
