In Kathmandu, pro-monarchist groups staged a mass demonstration advocating for the reinstatement of the monarchy, which was abolished in 2008. The rally was organized by the Rastriya Prajatantra Party and led by entrepreneur Durga Prasai. Recent comments from former king Gyanendra Shah have catalyzed support for the movement, raising concerns about political instability. Government leaders, including Prime Minister Oli, have warned against any attempts to disrupt the nation's progress, highlighting the deepening divide between pro-republic and pro-monarch factions in Nepal.
"The pro-monarchy movement has gained momentum since last month, after former king Gyanendra Shah hinted at taking a more active role in Nepal's politics."
"If anyone tries to hinder the country's progress or the flow of time, it will not be tolerated," warned Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli.
