Jehovah's Witness is key advisor to the King of Nepal
Posted May 17, 2005
The BBC News Online carried an interesting article on 1 March about the Hindu nation of Nepal. See: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/4304001.stm
It was an overview of the situation in Nepal one month after King Gyanendra took direct power and the BBC quotes Tulsi Giri, the cabinet deputy chairman.
What makes this interesting is that further on in the article Mr Giri is identified as belonging to "Nepal's tiny Jehovah's Witnesses religious community." Explaining that he has now returned from self-imposed exile in India the article continues, “A minister in Nepal's first democratically elected government of 1959-60, he then sided with King Mahendra - Gyanendra's father - when he sacked that administration, and played a key role in 1960-1990, when there was no democracy, serving as prime minister."
The cause for concern is that an active Jehovah's Witness convert is now a key advisor to the King of Nepal and wields immense power over Nepal. This probably explains the spurt in fraudulent Christian conversions in Nepal in recent years. From 15,000 in 1970 to over 400,000 Christian converts today, Nepal is considered to be having fastest growth of Christian population in the world, says Mr. Anil Stephen in Christian Today Magazine.
Nepal once considered to be one of the most peaceful countries has turned out to be a country burning with conflicts after the Christian Conversions Game started in Nepal. Is this a coincidence or there is some religious or political connection?
