Nepal's new government has scrapped all appointments made by King Gyanendra since October 2002, recalling handpicked ambassadors to key countries such as Britain, India and the United States. Finance Minister Ram Sharan Mahat says cabinet, which was appointed on Tuesday, has today decided to revoke all the appointments made by the King since October 2002. The move is the latest by the new government to roll back actions taken by the autocratic ruler of the tiny Himalayan kingdom in recent years.
