"...Nepal’s transition to democracy is almost complete. Nepal has undergone a unique moment in its history because it formed a constituent assembly to  draft the constitution for Nepal. Some sections in Nepal thought that a nominal monarchy was necessary for Nepal to retain its link with the past. The Maoist groups agreed to suspend armed struggle. They wanted the constitution to include the radical programmes of social and economic restructuring. All the parties in the SPA did not agree with this programme.
