Kathmandu, Oct 2 : Former Nepalese King Gyanendra Shah on Thursday met visiting Indian guru Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj at a Hindu religious sanctuary, Shyama-Shyam Dham, at Thimi in Bhaktapur district.

According to reports, both held spiritual discussions during their ten minute meeting.

This was King Gyanendras’ first public visit as a civilian after being dethroned from the county’s centuries-old institution of monarchy.

While talking to media persons, the former King wished for the peace in the country.

“May the wishes of the Nepali people come true and be able to do well,” Kantipur quoted King Gyanendra, as saying. (ANI)
