Kathmandu: The legend of a royal curse and other black myths will finally come true in Nepal in three weeks, marking the end of the nation`s once all-powerful royal lineage of Shah kings.
The countdown for cornered King Gyanendra began Friday with the Election Commission moving towards the official declaration of the April 10 election results that signal the end of the road for the Shah dynasty of kings.
Under the constitution, within three weeks the newly elected 601-member constituent assembly will hold its first meeting and implement last year`s parliamentary proclamation that seeks to abolish the nearly 250-year-old monarchy to become a federal republic.
