About 30,000 people rallied in the Nepal's capital on Thursday to press King Gyanendra to fire a royalist prime minister and form an all-party government in the biggest anti-king rally in the Himalayan kingdom since 1990.
King Gyanendra, who took over after his brother was killed along with several other royals in a palace massacre in 2001, has been under attack since he dissolved parliament nearly two years ago and sacked an elected prime minister in a row over elections."This is an important beginning to end the present autocratic system and restore democracy," Girija Prasad Koirala, chief of the centrist Nepali Congress party, told reporters as he squatted on a road with thousands of his supporters.
