"There is no possibility of the return of monarchy in Nepal. Gyanendra is not even a person worthy of becoming a constitutional monarch. Rather, the Rastriya Prajatantra Party can make Gyanendra the party president,” he said, addressing the inauguration of the training programme for the office-bearers and members of the NC Province Working Committee.


Deuba suggested former King Gyanendra to open a political party if he really was interested in politics.


"Better open a party if you really want to do politics! But those joining that party will suffer a lot," he said and directed the leaders and cadres to work unitedly in favour of the republic.
