Former king holds consultations on 'baby king'
Former king Gyanendra Shah has started consultations with relatives from
India and close aides in Nepal on strategies of enthroning the 'baby
king', Nepal Samacharpatra daily reported.
Shah met three Indian relatives in presence of his close aides Pashupati
Bhakta Maharjan, Dr Phanindra Raj Pathak, Madhusudhan Timilsina and Sagar
Timilsina at his Nirmal Niwas residence Thursday evening.
The discussion was based on 'baby king,' the daily reports quoting Nirmal
Niwas sources. The former king's aides had advised him on how he could
make his grandson the king.
The identity of the relatives from India was not disclosed. Shah recently
returned from a month-long visit to India where he attended a family
wedding and met top Indian leaders.
Maoist leaders had dubbed the former king's India visit as a ploy to
establish the 'baby king.'
Earlier this week, a previously unheard of Singaporean woman Angella Cheng
claimed to have high influences in Nepal's politics and revealed her plans
to enthrone the baby king. nepalnews.com Apr 04 09
