This is so ridiculous , and it seems to happen every six months. The people of Nepal should sack this King , not the King sack the Government (again!). This man is very bad luck for Nepal , he himself does almost nothing to end the Maoist
rebellion , preferring instead to keep most of the RNA around him in Kathmandu , to protect his reign from overthrow.
And worst of all , if something should happen to Guyendra
his evil son Paras would ascend to the throne. Paras is something like a Lite version of Uday Hussein and this would be a tragedy for Nepal. DUMP the King! Declare a Republic , call home all Gurkha's and soundly defeat the Maoists once and for all. Demand that India cooperate in this effort and stop secretly aiding and abetting the Maoists out of fear of their own Maoists.
Nepal is a mess today and this illegitimate King only makes it worse.

>> Maoists.

That's one of the most uninformed statements I've read. India co-operates fully with Nepal in ending the Maoist rebellion in Nepal and the Naxalite rebellion in some Indian provinces.

Maoism is the fruit of China, not India. And I don't see any South Asian country in a position to 'demand' something from India.

Umm,have you ever heard of the (proposed) policies of the Maoists in Nepal??First it's the usual stuff of finishing off the Monarchy etc & then to distance Nepal from India.The Indian military has opened several lines of credit enabling the RNA to buy Advanced light helicopters,'Lancer' CAS choppers,artillery & other weapons.I find your logic of India abetting the Maoists in Nepal in order to protect itself bizarre to say the least.The Maoists in Nepal are ideologically affiliated to their buddies in Bihar-what makes you think they will stop with Nepal??The US,UK & India have all increased help to Nepal with the express purpose of weakening Chinese expansion to the region,with the UK having given money for 2 MI-17 choppers.

I once met an Indian evangelist working in Nepal who said that it is common knowledge there that the current king & his offspring,Paras engineered the assasinations of King Mahendra & his family in 2001 in order to assume power.Gyanendra was supposedly not in favour of greater democracy,which would dilute the monarchy's power.It was Mahendra,who under Indian pressure,established a democratic government in Nepal.Hence Gyanendra was seen by many intell agencies in India as being against New Delhi & therefore pro-Beijing.
