Gyanendra Shah
Gyanendra Shah is the former King of Nepal, who reigned from 1950 to 1951 and again from 2000 until the abolition of the monarchy in 2008. He was the last king of Nepal and is known for his controversial rule, which included a decade of direct monarchy following a royal massacre in 2001. His reign saw significant political turmoil and widespread protests against royal autocracy, leading to the eventual establishment of a democratic republic in Nepal. Recently, he has been in the news for his remarks on national unity and the state of the nation, which have sparked discussions about his legacy and the historical context of monarchy in Nepal.
