Gyanendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev is to address to the nation this evening.
According to source, royal address will be chiefly focussed towards the prevailing political chaos besetting the country.
The King, in his address, may decide to relinquish the executive power, which he assumed some 14-months back in bloodless coup, if to believe source.
Similarly, the monarch is strongly expected to raise the issue of formation of an interim government.
As far as the constitution of an interim government is concerned, the former Prime Minister Krishna Prasad Bhattarai is strongly speculated to take lead role.
Political pundits forecast that some parties associated with the seven party alliance may also join yet-to-be-declared interim government.
