These notes were printed in India Security Press in Nashik, India. There was no special security feature in these notes. They were just printed on special paper and they used to have water mark.

From 1945 to 1955, these notes were issued by the royal treasury, because there was no central bank in Nepal. The right to issue these notes was with the treasury, which is known as Sadar Muluki Khana. These notes were not signed by any governor, but they were issued with the signature of the cashier.

Rana family was holding Nepal

King Tribhuvan Veer Vikram Shah of Nepal was born on 30 June 1906. His father was King Prithvi Veer Vikram Shah. Due to his father's death, he was seated on the throne at the age of only five and mother Divyeshwari Lakshmi Devi was appointed as his guardian till he became an adult. However, at that time the monarchy in Nepal was only nominal and the real power was with the Rana family, the family from which the Prime Minister of Nepal was made.

Stress increased during the First World War

During the First World War, tension increased between the royal family and the Rana family, as the Rana family wanted to send Nepal's army into a fight with Britain, while the royal family wanted to remain neutral in this war. Finally, the then Prime Minister Chandra Shamsher Jung Bahadur pushed the Nepal's army into the war by pressuring and threatening his mother. After this, tension in both the families kept increasing.

With the help of India, Nepal got rid of Rana family

At that time, the Praja Parishad in Nepal was struggling to end the domination of the Rana family and King Tribhuvan was very close to him. Therefore, in the year 1950, the king had to take refuge with his family in the Indian Embassy in Nepal. He was accompanied by son Mahendra and elder grandson Virendra. After this, the then Prime Minister of Nepal, Mohan Shamsher Jung Bahadur Rana, called an emergency meeting and declared Gyanendra Veer Vikram Shah, the four -year -old grandson of King Tribhuvan, as the king of the country. At the same time, the then Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru sent two planes to call King Tribhuvan and his family to India.

Due to this, the Rana family came under pressure and over time his opposition in Nepal increased. Finally, in the year 1951, King Tribhuvan returned to Nepal and after some time and after being in office, the dominance of the Rana family from Nepal ended. After this, King Tribhuvan created modern Nepal. However, at the age of only 49, he died on 9 March 1955 in Zurik, Switzerland.
