Former king Gyanendra Shah has once again begun issuing public messages using the royal title, reversing his earlier use of the designation ‘former king’. A notice released on Wednesday by Shah’s Secretariat of Communication ahead of his scheduled visit to Janakpur refers to him in full royal honorifics, effectively presenting him as ‘king’. The statement announces that Gyanendra Shah and Queen Komal will visit Janaki Temple in Janakpur on January 26.
