A History of the Pentecostal Movement in Nepal

Abstract

"Since Nepal is a Hindu country, it has been practicing a constitutional monarchical system since 1990. Prior to that, the king was the absolute monarch for many years, and he banned a multiparty democratic system. During the revolution in the 1990s, the ban on the multiparty system was relaxed. People had a very high expectation of democracy with a belief that their situation would be magically changed. So far people have not had many of their expectation fulfilled. Citizens have affiliations with various existing parties and some of the extreme groups have taken the way of violence."
