The present situation in Nepal is tense within the royalists. The King has been stripped of his power and the future of the monarchy holds bleak. In this time and era, where the kingdoms and sheikdoms still prevail in many nations around the world, their role in their nations have always been questioned by democratic forces. In Nepal too, the monarch who was respected for ages is now dishonored by its own people. The newer generations in Nepali society looks at monarchy as evil and misguiding. And their reason for their believe is based on reasons with practicality. The role of monarchies in the 21st century in limited. In England and other European nations the monarchy's role is just ceremonial and not a burden to its people to an large extent. In Nepal, Monarchy was seen active and is/was important in religion and as a political force. Now, the new era for Monarchy has begun but the complete scenario is not yet established. The Royalists are watching the situation and the absence of their leader for now has cooled down the situation. But many believe that the real political drama is yet to begin. As SPA, have made themselves supreme in the name of the people, the legitamacy of their proclamation is still in limbo. They have banged tables and chairs in the parliament but not have answered many questions except attacking the Crown. This needs to be looked upon. Unlike the people on streets of few 100 thousand, Royalists have maintained themselves at distance of what they call it as 'sobre' and 'discipline'. Palace and their associations are watching clearly of the development and quietly observing the hatred towards them more than those who have killed and still killing in thousands. Nepal is set for a white revolution where hunger for power will be splashed with blood and tears!
