He also said that he would not accept the suzerainty of anybody other than of the people.
He said that he did not tender his resignation in emotion but to hit the foreign power brokers and the national followers of the foreign power brokers. He also said, “My resignation is a missile against them.”
He said, “Followers of the military path are actually following the ‘Gyanendra path’. They want to launch a civil war and impose a state of emergency. So, our slogan is ‘suzerainty of the people not of guns’. The supremacy of military will be defeated at the people’s movement, the people will be victorious and set up a lasting peace.”
