Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal said the power of deposed king Gyanendra Shah has not grown and he was only getting restless.

At a press meet in Kavre, Dahal said the recent statement by Shah doesn't indicate his powers. "He is only growing restless, not gaining powers. There is no need to discuss it," said Dahal.

Shah, in the statement, had expressed grave concern over the current state of political affairs.

Dahal said he would take initiative to resume the parliament upon returning to the capital.
