Kathmandu, October 15
The crown worn by former kings has been made public on Monday. Now onwards, the visitors can have a look at the historical object at the Naraynhiti Palace Museum.
Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli made the crown public amidst a event held at the Museum today.
Public who visit the museum can observe the crown, which is being kept in a bulletproof showcase along with a scepter, the queen’s crown and a sword.
Gyanendra Shah was the last king to wear the crown.
After Nepal was declared a republic in 2008, he had refused to give up the crown, but he relinquished it after the government put pressure on him.
The crown was kept in a digitally password protected cupboard since then.
