I am not sure if Mahato is Nepali anymore. Don't take my word for it, for I am just making a conjecture. Mahato must have taken the Russian citizenship to hame amassed that much wealth - multi million net. With current laws in Nepal that forbids dual-citizenship, you automatically lose your Nepali citizenship when you accept another country's. But yes, Royal Tanashahis, with their ill gotten wealth, are probably high up there in money scale. Huna pani kina nahun ta, tyetro barsha desh lootna payo. That's why there are royalist dogs and "chawras" - such as memyselfandnepal of this forum - who still bark for them, lick the dirt of the soles of their feet, kiss their ass vigorously, hoping to get some crumbs leftover from the table. Yeah, memyselfandnepal, I meant you...
