On 06 November 1950, King Tribhuvan of Nepal fled to India during a political crisis in Nepal. This event marked a significant turning point in Nepal's history and its relationship with India.
King Tribhuvan left Nepal and sought refuge in the Indian Embassy in Kathmandu as a result of tensions and power struggles within Nepal's ruling establishment. He had come into conflict with the Rana regime, a hereditary aristocracy that had held power in Nepal for over a century, and sought refuge in the Indian Embassy as a way to escape the control of the Rana rulers.
This event ultimately led to a political transformation in Nepal. With the assistance of India, King Tribhuvan's return to power was facilitated, and the Rana rule was effectively dismantled. The restoration of the monarchy and the establishment of a more democratic system marked a significant shift in Nepal's political landscape. King Tribhuvan's return and the subsequent political changes are often referred to as the "Democratic Revolution" in Nepal's history.
King Tribhuvan's period of exile in India and his eventual return had a profound impact on the political development of Nepal and its relationship with India. It set the stage for a more democratic and inclusive political system in Nepal, and the close ties between the two countries were solidified during this period.
