Massive foreign fund flowing in the capital: HM the King.
His Majesty King Gyanendra said a huge sum of foreign money is
flowing into the capital for sometime now.
Giving instructions to nominated presidents and vice presidents
of eight district development committees of Bagmati zone in Lalitpur
Thursday, His Majesty said he wanted them to be aware about this
fact.
The monarch did not elaborate.
While visiting the mid-western region last month, King Gyanendra
had alleged that anti-social elements were active in Kathmandu
and that those taking part in student demonstrations were hired
people.
Opposition parties and student bodies refuted such allegations.
An alliance of seven opposition parties has intensified its street
protests in the capital for the last few weeks against the royal
takeover and calling for restoration of peace and democracy in
the country.
King Gyanendra took direct control of the government in February
this year by dismissing a coalition government led by premier
Sher Bahadur Deuba.
Deuba is now placed under custody on corruption charges. nepalnews.com
