I won't answer all of your questions...but will answer few.. 1. His statue is covered nowadays because part of it was damaged by protestors long back...Since then, they are covering it. 2. It is true that there won't have been Nepal if he had not united...People shouldn't do such to his image and disrespect him....He deserves respect...BUT though i say he deserves respect, I do not agree on one thing - that he is a Brave king... he won by deception, attacked kantipur valley on days when people had festivals.. if he had really been brave, he would have attacked some other day... he married some queens of bhaktapur or patan( this i forgot) to have good relation with them and then attack kantipur... In our history, he deserves respect and people should not do such to him ...you are right... but i was only telling that he was not really a brave king... brave ones never shoot from behind you !!
