King Gyanendra last week issued orders defining the parameters or do’s and don’ts during the emergency under article 115(7) of the constitution on the recommendations of the council of ministers, an official government announcement said.

News and comments claiming the contrary are baseless, an announcement of the Council of Ministers said Monday. Published reports said the Royal Palace independently issued stricter guidelines ignoring milder government recommendations.

The King issued the orders on government recommendation, the official announcement said. The denial indicates the seriousness with which the government takes the issue.
