Talk:Nepali Army

Commander in chief
As far as who is commander in chief of the Nepal Army is disputed right now. The Prime Minister and cabinet may have fired General Rookmangud Katawal, but the President has the final authority to fire him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.54.34.91 (talk) 06:08, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Stop changing the small arms!
The 500 SCAR-Hs are used by special protection units as well as some of the soldiers in the Ranger Regiment and Paratroopers due to an agreement with the US and Belgian military, STOP CHANGING THIS! Also, to the person who keeps on adding the tanks and fight jets to the list of equipment, please stop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.185.182.25 (talk) 02:47, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Strict joining policy?
I've placed a tag on the statement "Unlike other military forces around the world, the Nepalese Army has a very strict joining policy". Can anyone explain what this is supposed to mean? I'd think that most military forces would say they have strict joining policies - it is possible that the Nepalese one is uniquely strict in some way, but this isn't detailed anywhere in the article or any source given.

 * Comment GBooks says "Nepalese Army" or "Nepal Army". The Himalyan uses "Nepali Army" or "Nepal Army" far more "Nepalese Army." I suggest "Nepal Army" since that's a close second both internationally and locally. Allan Rice (talk) 12:47, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

Nepal army
The Nepali Army (Nepali: नेपाली सेना, romanized: Nēpālī Sēnā), also referred as the Gorkhali Army (गोरखाली सेना, Gōrakhālī Sēnā; see Gorkhas), is the land service branch of the Nepali Armed Forces. After the Gorkha Kingdom was founded in 1559, its army was established in 1560, and was accordingly known as the Gorkhali Army. The army later became known as the Royal Nepali Army (RNA) following the Unification of Nepal, when the Gorkha Kingdom expanded its territory to include the whole country, by conquering and annexing the other states in the region, resulting in the establishment of a single united Hindu monarchy over all of Nepal. It was officially renamed simply to the Nepali Army on 28 May 2008, upon the abolition of the 240-year-old Nepalese monarchy, and of the 449-year-old rule of the Shah dynasty, shortly after the Nepalese Civil War. 2405:ACC0:169:3656:7DD2:C3AB:BF8E:3CED (talk) 03:02, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
