KATHMANDU, AUG 10 - Deposed King Gyanendra Shah has remarked that he has been keeping a close eye on the unfolding political events ahead of the Aug 31 deadline of the Constituent Assembly (CA). He added that the post Aug 31 situation could become more complicated.
The former Hindu monarch, who has been active in religious programmes in recent times, gave such response to media persons while returning after participating in a Mahayagya, a religious function in Lalitpur.
“The month of Shrawan is almost over, Bhadra is the month of drizzles and during this period people keep out the chilly for drying,” said Shah, hinting at the nearing deadline of the CA. “Let’s see who is going to be affected by the chillies’ raciness.”
He stressed on the need for bringing in the first integrated draft of the new constitution through consensus among all the parties. “The parties much bring out any democratic document acceptable to everyone,” he said. “Let that be not torn apart.”
In the five-point deal signed before extending the CA’s term on May 28, the major three political parties had agreed to bring out the first draft of the new constitution before Aug 31.
