Its not surprising king is gradually getting people's confidence now. If king was so bad he could have easily implemented military rule like saddam but in turn he heard the people's voice that time. I think it is good that king has left his powers because we are now seeing the reality of maoist who always said they were in favor of ordinary nepali. There is no demorcracy at all in the rule of maoist. They can extort money at any time, put taxes, make separate budget for their armies and buying guns and arms. They can take guns to parliment, tax visitors, industries, forced children to thier rallies from school of kathmandu few days earlier which is clear violation of human right. If a traffic police tries to fine a maoist leader if they break traffic rule, he/she would be reprimanded and warned that he/she would be dismissed from his work. uff what a democracy.
