Political parties have declared protest programmes against the king's 4 October move. If the monarch does not correct his mistake, they promise that they will react even more strongly. The Nepali Congress is going to organise nation-wide programs to strengthen the party and raise people's awareness to protect the achievements of the 1990 people's movement and democratic system starting from 8 November with mass meetings on 26 November in different parts of the country.

Similarly, the CPN-UML will organise a public awareness campaign across the country for a month starting 19 November. It will also organise 13 zone-level mass meetings. The People's Front will organise a month-long protest programme starting 11 November. It will also organise mass meetings in all 75 districts on 16 December, and a greater mass meeting in Kathmandu on 22 December.
