Kathmandu:

The Rastriya Prajatantra Party-Nepal today decided to hold a mass rally next week to protest the recent decision by the seven-party alliance of declaring the country a republic. “The party has scheduled a mass rally for January 7 at Sundhara to defy totalitarian tendency of the seven-party alliance,” said Rabindra Nath Sharma, chairman of RPP-N today.

He said the rally was a bid to bring all nationalist forces together.
