Description: Kathmandu (Nepal), May 03 (ANI): Amid rising royalist sentiment, the Nepal government has reaffirmed its commitment to upholding the current system and constitution, signaling its intention to move forward with constitutional amendments. President Ram Chandra Paudel, outlining the plans and policies of the KP Sharma Oli-led administration, announced that the amendment process would be pursued in the upcoming year. Presenting the policy draft at a joint session of the Federal Parliament, President Paudel emphasized that the constitution would be reviewed and revised through a consensus-based approach to address existing shortcomings. On March 28, Kathmandu witnessed the deadliest pro-monarchy clash to date, resulting in two deaths and widespread incidents of arson and vandalism across the capital. Since the monarchy, which had lasted for over two centuries, was overthrown in 2006 with the restoration of Loktantra (democracy), the Rastriya Prajatantra Party has consistently advocated for its reinstatement. Two years later, on May 28, 2008, Nepal officially transitioned into a republic and secular state. Less than two decades into this new system of governance, the country now finds itself sharply divided between pro- and anti-monarchy factions.
