Princess Kritika Rajya Lakshmi Devi of Nepal (born 16 October 2003) is the youngest daughter of Crown Prince Paras and Crown Princess Himani. She is a granddaughter of King Gyanendra.
Like her sister, Purnika, Kritika is not in the line of succession to the Nepalese Throne however in July 2006 the Nepalese government proposed changing the succession law to equal primogeniture [1] meaning Princess Kritika would be in the order of succession, although regardless of whether the succession were instituted as full primogeniture, or simply male-preference, she would still be fourth, after her father, sister and brother.
On 28 May 2008 the Nepalese monarchy was abolished and replaced with a secular federal republic.[2]
