KG erasing King Birendra?

After half year of KG's RACHANATMAK SHASHAN, a thick forest of hoarding boards with MAHABANIs has grown in KTM valley. You can see MAHABANIs of Tribhuvan, Mahendra and KG ( very soon you may be able to see Paras' MAHABANI too!), but you hardly can see any by King Birendra. Why is this happening? Who is doing this? Can KG be so cruel to his beloved bro? If not KG, who is planning this? tulsi giri openly says that he disliked King Birendra because he started liberalizing panchayat. Other DARBARIYAs may also be having same feeling as King Birendra sided with people and tried to be a modern king. He accepted constitutional monarchy. That heightened his national and international stature. They may be trying to erase King Birendra from every aspect of life. But can they do it? Some of you guys may have looked at a picture in NEPAL magazine some years ago. King Birendra and Queen Aishwarya were walking in Thamel. No guards were seen near them. One Photo journalist (Gopal Chitrkar?) saw them and photographed them. They didn't know that. That photograph came out. King and Queen were going to meet their daughter, Princess Shruti, who was pregnant at that time. King was in pant, shirt, half jacket and baseball cap and Queen was in simple SARI CHOLO. They were walking freely, King and Queen among their own people, fearless and "one of them". They were looking so majestic in that simplicity. I grew up in republican ideology but at that point of my life, after looking at that photograph, I supported constitutional monarchy with all my heart. But why is KG's government doing this? Not only in this case, they don't mention King Birendra at all now. Many organizations are funded by palace in names of mahendra, KG and paras, but not in the name of King Birendra? Nepali people have accepted (half willingly though) that may be it was Dipendra who created royal massacre, but actions by KG's SARKAR make one suspicious and arouse different thoughts.
