Khaobaadi ji don't u know USSR was much powerful than Afghanistan , they never suceed. USA was very powerful they never could suceed defeating vietnam. Neither will India, how powerful it is? Don't u know CIA report when in 2002 Sri Lanka was on the verge of divison and then India was warned by CIA not to let it happen coz, india would get it repercussions back, I agrree India can take over Nepal in one day, do you know the repercussion, it will be disaster to India. Otherwise India could have done way back, khaobaadi ji. yes I agree with your point Nepal is n't soverign economically.And now coming down to King, definitely he is a deterrent to India, remeber its not a individual but the whole moanrchy system that plays a vital role . Politicians they would have sold country long back would have made Nepal similar to bhutan, whose only resposibility is to vote in favour of India , how silly the resolution is in United Nation.
