Deuba, on October 4, said his dismissal by the King was unconstitutional. Speaking to the media, he said the existing Constitution did not permit his removal.

Separately, Communist Party of Nepal (Marxist-Leninist) general secretary Madhav Kumar Nepal said Deuba’s removal was 'extremely shocking'. The Rastriya Prajatantra Party and Nepali Congress president Girija Prasad Koirala said they would comment on the new development after a meeting of the Central Committee of their respective parties on October 5, today. The national government is likely to be put in place in five days’ time.

King Gyanendra of Nepal, on October 4 night, dismissed caretaker Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba and his Cabinet from office, and assumed executive powers of the country. The impending mid-term polls to the National Assembly have been indefinitely deferred. Political parties have been asked to send the names of their representatives who the King said would be appointed to a proposed national government. In a televised address to the nation the King said the deteriorating law and order situation in the country and the inefficiency of the Prime Minister had compelled him to take the step. The King was apparently referring to the rising tide of violence by the Maoist insurgents and the inability of the security forces to contain it. The King said decision was based on Article 27 (3) of the Constitution of Nepal, which says: "His Majesty is to preserve and protect this Constitution by keeping in view the best interests and the welfare of the people of Nepal." The King, in his recorded videotape address, assured the country that he was committed to democracy and constitutional monarchy. "I am always committed to the welfare of Nepalis, constitutional monarchy and democracy," he reassured the people. During the entire duration of his address, the King made no mention of the Maoist insurgents at all.

A report in an English language daily, Kathmandu Post, on October 26, said Maoist insurgents chairman ‘comrade’ Prachanda called for a dialogue amongst the Maoist insurgents, political parties, the King and the intelligentsia to prevent what he called frittering away the gains of the ‘1990-pro-democracy movement’. He criticised the King for assuming executive powers and said there could be no alteration to the constitutional provision that vests sovereignty in the people. In a signed statement Prachanda warned that the insurgents would continue with their campaign of violence if such a meeting was not called for, which he said was the ‘appropriate forum to deliberate on a new Constituent Assembly’. The proposed meeting would help resolve the crisis in the country, Parachanda argued, and declared, "The talk of dialogue against the backdrop of King Gyanendra’s recent move has made the situation quite complicated and confusing… What we want is that the real situation be made clear without any ill-intention or conspiracy." He called upon the King to ‘demonstrate the will to make sacrifice’ and call for a new Constituent Assembly that would frame a new Constitution. Prachanda also informed through his statement that the Maoist ‘people’s war’ was launched as the 1990 movement was "incomplete" and its achievements "insufficient".
