The Maoist insurgency in Nepal, known as the Nepalese Civil War, began on February 13, 1996, when the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) launched a rebellion against the government. The conflict aimed to overthrow the monarchy and establish a people's republic, fueled by widespread social and economic grievances. The war lasted until 2006, resulting in significant loss of life and displacement, ultimately leading to a peace agreement and the abolition of the monarchy in 2008.
There are about 5% maoist child soldiers in Nepal.

As of 15 January 2007 Nepal was governed by an unicameral legislature under an interim constitution. On December 24, 2007, seven parties, including the former Maoist rebels and the ruling party, agreed to abolish monarchy and declare Nepal a Federal Republic
Nepal was declared a secular state in 2006 after the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Accord between the government and Maoist rebels, effectively ending a decade-long civil war. This move aimed to promote religious freedom and harmony among Nepal's diverse population.
The movement in April 2006 brought about a change in the nation's governance: an interim constitution was promulgated, with the King giving up power, and an interim House of Representatives was formed with Maoist members after the new government held peace talks with the Maoist rebels. The number of parliamentary seats was also increased to 330. In April 2007, the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) joined the interim government of Nepal. In December 2007, the interim parliament passed a bill making Nepal a federal republic, with a president as head of state. Elections for the constitutional assembly were held on 10 April 2008; the Maoist party led the results but did not achieve a simple majority of seats.The new parliament adopted the 2007 bill at its first meeting by an overwhelming majority, and King Gyanendra was given 15 days to leave the Royal Palace in central Kathmandu. He left on 11 June. Article By: Sushil Dahal

Assuming that by "South Asia" only the specific region of the Indian Subcontinent is being referred to, the only current monarchy in that region is BHUTAN. Nepal was also a monarchy until the government was overthrown by the Maoist Rebellion in 2008.
Nepal's government before 1980 was a monarchical government.
