Aalu jasto has got some point. I think the old leaders ..esp Girija and his gang are scared of bringing 'republican' and proportional representation in the country. They know their existence would be in danger once they bring in republican and the proportional representation.( main agenda for 'New Nepal') He would rather stick to some form of 'Ceremonial king' and some form of indian inteference.That is best seved by Girija's team
