Rajsabha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rajsabha (ne:राजसभा Nepali for "The King's Council") was a constitutional body in the Kingdom of Nepal provisioned by Constitution of Nepal 1962. It consisted of heads of other constitutional bodies and several members appointed by the king.[1]

Rajsabha was replaced by Raj Parishad by Constitution of Nepal 1990.[2]

The monarchy in Nepal was abolished on 28 May 2008, and therefore so were the king’s councils.[3][4]
