Nepal's King Gyanendra announced this morning on state television that he has dismissed the Government led by Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba. The King is reported to have said that he was taking over direct power because the Deuba regime had failed to fulfill its mandate. "I have decided to dissolve the Government because it has failed to make necessary arrangements to hold elections by April and protect democracy, the sovereignty of the people and life and property," the King said in his announcement. Deuba had been reappointed Prime Minister during June 2004, two years after King Gyanendra sacked him for failing to contain the Maoist insurgency. The insurgents had recently failed to respond to a January 13, 2005-deadline set by Deuba to hold peace talks. Meanwhile, Associated Press has reported that soldiers have surrounded Deuba’s residence and the houses of other Government leaders in the capital Kathmandu.
