Voice of the Nepalese meant nothing to this system. In fact, anyone who talked against the King would be sentenced to jail, or killed or made to disappear for life
Constitution of the system didn't allow any Political Parties to be born
Basic Human rights and the freedom of speech was suppressed
News and media was mainly run by Nepali King and its people and hence the Truth-News never existed in Nepal during those years
Corruption was at the highest level; Ministry and local government body were getting richer day by day
Getting a job in government offices meant, lobbying with Government personnel by giving money or having connections

Improvement in the day-to-day life of the people was not seen while many still argue that today's multi party system hasn't proved to be any better. Panchayat system still gets good reputation for having lower inflation, development and peace in the country then other systems that followed
