Don't beat around the bush guys. Well it seems awkward to hear that king is not allowed to give xxx. I think you misunderstood the responsibilities of the Head of State. In my understanding, King is barred from taking part in the function in the capacity of head of state. That's all, nothing more, nothing less.
He is welcome to help the poor people. The stuffs that is distributed during the Mahashivaratri is just the tradition and he doesn't reach the really poor people who are in need.

Anybody who helps people is welcome anytime. I don't think Gyanendra was worried about poor people and distributed something to some jogis or so... There are million people who need food and cloth. Is anybody to ready to help them? Answer?

Nepal in the transitional phase, we will be seeing lots more awkward things taking place in Nepal in the near future.
