Maile Dekheko Darbar

The memoir Maile Dekheko Darbar is an account of senior official who is not just privy to the happenings in the royal court but an active participant in their activities. Shah has taken quite a risk revealing many confidential matters of Nepal Army and Palace in his book. The book evolved from his diaries that he maintained when he served in the Nepal Army, particularly Narayanhiti Palace for more than three decades. The book touches on the controversies surrounding the royal massacre of June 1, 2000 and involvement of Indian government in training Maoist guerrillas during the insurgency. The book also claims that the royal massacre unfolded as a result of political conspiracy. The book is published by Yeti Publication and distributed by Shangrila Books.
