Mahendra
King Mahendra of Nepal ruled from 1950 until his death in 1972. Known for his autocratic governance, he is remembered for implementing the party-less Panchayat system, which curtailed political freedoms and suppressed democratic movements. His reign was marked by efforts to modernize Nepal but also by significant political unrest. The controversial circumstances surrounding his assassination in 2001 have fueled various conspiracy theories, particularly regarding the involvement of royal family members in his death.
