As far as I know, changing the capital has been one of the Maoists' agendas. But looks like they have given up the idea after realizing the ground reality of Nepal. Recently, I had an opportunity to talk to two senior leaders cum MPs of NC and UML. I asked this question to both of these leaders. And, both of these saw no imminent chances of changing the capital. Whether we need to change the capital or not is another question. But, the reality is that this isnt going to happen anytime soon.
