§
The cruel Ranas ruled in Nepal for 104 years. Some of the people were well known about the cruel behavior of Ranas. These people got organized with each other and formed an army (liberation army).

They created awareness among the people about the cruel and monopoly behavior of the Ranas . They made the people realize about their rights .They revolted against the Ranas. In this attempt to establish democracy, some of our nepali brothers namely Sukra raj shastri, Ganga lal shrestha , Dasarath chand and Dharma Bhakta Mathema were killed by the Ranas. king Tribhuwan also wanted to help the liberation army . So, he encouraged them for the establishment of democracy in Nepal and also financially help them. Then, the king asked for asylum in Indian Embassy and flew to India with his family. Then , the prime minister , Mohan shumsher crowned Gyanendra (the second grandson of king Tribhuwan). This act was not supported by India and other countries. At last, the Ranas decided to negotiate with king Tribhuvan and the leaders of the Nepali congress. Hence, an agreement was done in Delhi, India between Ranas, King Tribhuwan and the Nepali Congress.
