Nepal 1955 Royal Succession Mystery

5 min•11 juli 2026

In 1955, Nepal's King Tribhuvan died unexpectedly in a Zurich clinic, sparking rumors of a cover-up. His son Mahendra was crowned under a cloud of suspicion, with whispers that the Delhi Accord and Rana interests may have played a role. This episode pieces together the final days of Tribhuvan, the political pressures on the monarchy, and the unanswered questions that still surround the succession. We explore the Zurich mystery, the legacy of Tribhuvan's reformist reign, and how Mahendra's accession reshaped Nepal's fragile democracy.
