Nepal's 1950s Indian Exile and the Fall of the Ranas
In the early 1950s, Nepal's King Tribhuvan fled to India, sparking a chain of events that ended Rana rule. This episode explores the king's dramatic escape, the Delhi Accord, and the Indian influence that shaped Nepal's first democratic experiment. We discuss key players like Mohan Shamsher, B.P. Koirala, and Jawaharlal Nehru, and how the revolution unfolded from the Indian Embassy in Kathmandu to the negotiating table in Delhi. Listeners will learn about the Mukti Sena guerrillas, the role of the Nepali Congress, and the fragile compromise that brought down a century-old oligarchy.
