Nepal's Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli on Thursday cautioned against forgetting the autocratic rule imposed during the monarchy and called for collective efforts to consolidate the achievements of the federal democratic republic.
Speaking at an event in the capital, Oli urged everyone to focus on strengthening the republican system while referring to the recent protests demanding the restoration of the monarchy.
"People have still not forgotten the autocratic regime imposed during the reign of monarchy in the country," he said while pointing to the recent pro-monarchy demonstrations in Kathmandu.
