Proclamation to the Nation from
His Majesty King Gyanendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev
(24 April 2006)
Beloved Countrymen,
Convinced that the source of State Authority and Sovereignty of the Kingdom of Nepal
is inherent in the people of Nepal and cognizant of the spirit of the ongoing people's
movement as well as to resolve the on-going violent conflict and other problems facing
the country according to the road map of the agitating Seven Party Alliance,
we, through this Proclamation, reinstate the House of Representatives which was dissolved
on 22 May 2002 on the advice of the then Prime Minister in accordance with the Constitution
of the Kingdom of Nepal-1990. We call upon the Seven Party Alliance to bear the responsibility
of taking the nation on the path to national unity and prosperity, while ensuring permanent
peace and safeguarding multiparty democracy. We also summon the session of the reinstated House
of Representatives at the Sansad Bhawan, Singha Durbar at 1 P.M. on Friday, 28 April 2006.
We are confident that this House will contribute to the overall welfare of Nepal and
the Nepalese people.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to all those who have lost their lives in the people's
movement and wish the injured speedy recovery. We are confident that the nation will forge
ahead towards sustainable peace, progress, full-fledged democracy and national unity.
May Lord Pashupatinath bless us all!
Jaya Nepal!
