Nepal’s ex-King Gyanendra on Wednesday embarked on a two-week personal visit to India during which he is expected to meet political leaders. The former King is accompanied by his wife Komal and daughter- in-law Himani Shah. He will be visiting Jaipur for attending a wedding function in the family.
However, he will have a stopover in Delhi during the two-week visit where the ex-monarch is likely to meet some political leaders, according to sources close to the ex-King.
Meanwhile, the Nepalese people on Wednesday observed the 290th birth anniversary of late King Prithvi Narayan Shah, who is known for unifying the modern day Nepal.
