Nepal owns many archaeological properties in India. Kathmandu is gradually forgetting them

On the night of April 24, 1806, furious King Rana Bahadur Shah ordered his employees to behead Tribhuvan Khawas and to blind his younger brother Sher Bahadur Shah, on the charge of financial irregularities. However, in the blink of an eye, Sher Bahadur Shah killed the king himself.

Before that, Rana Bahadur Shah had left the throne and settled in Kashi (Vanaras) of India as Nirgunananda Swami before he returned to Kathmandu in 1804 to serve as a regent of his minor son King Griwan Yudda Bikram Shah. As mentioned in an article by Bhesh Narayan Dahal, a former director-general of the Department of Archaeology, Rana Bahadur Shah lived at Lalita Ghat during his stay in Kashi.
