Monarchy has no justification, says Madhav Nepal



BIRATNAGAR: Unified Socialist Chairman and former Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal has said there is no justification for restoring monarchy in Nepal.

Speaking to journalists at Biratnagar Airport, Nepal dismissed any prospects of reviving the monarchy, stating, “We should be free from the daydream of bringing back a monarchy that has lost its justification.”

He said that the current federal democratic republican system was established with the consent of former King Gyanendra.

On a separate note, the former Prime Minister stressed the need for a constitutional amendment and ruled out the possibility of immediate unification with the CPN-UML.
