Prithvi got an amnesty when he was defeated first time by Kirtipur. Oh yes, Prithvi was defeated by Kirtipur twice. Here he was defeated and hid himself in a pen( I mean kukhura ko khor) to save his life. Later the owner of the house found him, he decalred he was the king of Gorkha. When the Naya: of Kirtipur learnt about him, The Naya: let him go, saying kings are an incarnation of God Vishnu.
When Prithvi won Kirtipur, this Naya: (mayor) was the first to be killed by Prithvi.

I am glad that Kingship has been uprooted for good. F**K this dynasty and King Prithvi.
By the way, you may say F888k me, but let me tell you I am from Kirtipur and my ancesters were the ones whose noses were chopped off then. And Prithvi did not defeat us as bravely as we defeated the Gorkhali then. I am a proud Kirtipure: proud that our ancesters were braver than Gorkhali.
