Republic Day (Nepal)

Celebrations include a military parade in Kathmandu and several small-scale programs organised by various government agencies across the country.

The prime minister and other government positions were made hereditary and the monarch had no real power.

The Democracy movement in 2006, resulting from the seven party alliance, brought the civil war to an end and spearheaded the Maoists into mainstream politics.

The main Republic Day celebration is held in the national capital, Kathmandu at the Sainik Manch, Tundikhel.

Ceremonious parades take place at Tundikhel, which are performed as a tribute to the country; its unity in diversity and rich cultural heritage.
