General Secretary of CPN-UML Madhav Kumar Nepal has said that the king will be made a citizen after the election to the constituent assembly and added that Thursday's proclamation was merely the beginning.

The UML leader further said that series of declarations were yet to be made.

Addressing a condolence meeting Friday at Nijgadh of Bara district, Nepal said the main tasks of the government were the formation of an interim government and the election to the constituent assembly.

Likewise, in a press meet at Simara airport Friday itself, the UML leader warned that those who defy the decisions made by the parliament will be left behind. He also called on the Maoists to immediately stop extortions, levying tax and abduction.

Terming a remark made by Maoist politburo member Matrika Yadav that his party should lead the interim government, Nepal said the issue of leadership of the interim government will be reached through consensus. nepalnews.com pb May 19 06
