Nepalese Republic and Legitimacy

His Majesty King Gyandendra of NepalThe Economic Times of India believes it would “would lead to a crisis of legitimacy for the nascent constitutional-democratic process” to “have an interim legislature abolish the monarchy.”

Well, the interim legislature has done just about everything but formally proclaim a republic. Not that I endorse any proclamation of a Nepalese republic, as regular readers of this blog should know.
