The ruling party Congress-UML and the opposition Maoists have warned that they will retaliate if the former king Gyanendra Shah engages in anarchic activities. The top leaders of the three major parties have warned the former King Shah that 'trying to force him will not be tolerated'. They have also asked former king Shah to stay within the constitution.

Prime Minister and UML President KP Sharma Oli, while addressing the Karnali State Assembly on Friday, accused the royalists of trying to destroy national unity by creating chaos. "Some elements are trying to seize power by creating chaos, relying on the system, not the constitution. It is not clear which system they are trying to bring. Which constitution will be brought by throwing this constitution? What kind of constitution? Return to the monarchy? Return to Panchayat? Where to return? Towards Jahanian rule in one form or another?' He asked, 'There is a flood of aimless things. Everyone talks like a king. The constitution should not be accepted as if it were a king. They talk as if they are above the constitution.' 

He also accused the search of creating division in the name of caste and religion. Attempts are being made to destroy national unity in many names. Be it in the name of caste, religion, identity  or in other names. Efforts are being made to create a rift between the people in various ways, to keep the country in a controlled instability that does not allow it to move forward,'' he said. We have to go through the constitutional way. If I am popular, I have to wait for 084.

Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, who reached Rautahat during the Terai-Madhesh Awakening campaign, suggested to former king Shah to open a party if he wanted to do politics. "People have allowed themselves to sit comfortably instead of taking action liberally." If the king considers liberality to be a weakness, he would have opened a party and come to contest the elections,' he said, 'If you try to force it, it will not be tolerated.'

Congress president Sher Bahadur Deuba also said in Mahottari last Thursday that monarchy has no place in the republic. "The king himself became a factor in the republic," he said. Republic came after excesses. The king is the cause of the establishment of the republic.'

Congress leader and Home Minister Ramesh Akhtar said at a press conference in Doti on Saturday that there is a conspiracy against democracy.

'There are few examples in the world of a king who was thrown out by the revolution staying in the same country,' he said, 'Due to advanced democracy in the country, the former king Gyanendra is able to stay in Nepal and enjoy his rights like a citizen.' He also challenged the former king to open the party and come to an open discussion.

"A monarchy cannot be an alternative to a republic, an autocracy cannot be an alternative to democracy," he said.

On Wednesday, the RPP held a demonstration with a motorcycle rally in Kathmandu to build public opinion against corruption, corruption, and in favor of the monarchy and the Hindu nation. Earlier meetings were held in Dhangadhi, Itahari, Butwal, Pokhara etc. Mohan Kumar Shrestha, spokesperson of RPP, said that the party has decided to hold programs throughout the month of January and February and hold a central demonstration in Kathmandu in March.

"We have been conducting programs across the country to increase public opinion that there is a need for a system from the king to the political parties," he said. The meeting of the central officials of the RPP has also reviewed the political situation, the programs and performances of the party going on all over the country.

Maoist's Terai-Madhesh Campaign Postponed

Maoists have postponed the one-month Terai-Madhesh Awakening Campaign centered on the Hulaki Highway, saying that they will hold a program centered on Kathmandu due to the activities of the royalists. The awakening campaign which started on February 12 from Kachanakbal in Jhapa was postponed after reaching Rautahat on Saturday. In Rautahat, Maoist Chairman Dahal said that the royalists will not tolerate any chaotic activities.

According to Agni Sapkota, Vice Chairman and Spokesperson of Maoists, the campaign has been suspended for one month to make the functioning of the Parliament effective and to counter the activities against the federal democratic republic system. It was seen that they are trying to create chaos by doing activities against the republic. Countering this is the need of the moment," he said. "The campaign has been suspended to make the work of Parliament effective." While the Maoists were campaigning in Madhesh, the Rajawadis demonstrated in Birganj on Saturday.
