He died before his father, and his son Prithvi ascended the throne. Crown Prince Trailokya was the son of King Surendra and his wife, Trailokya Rajya Laxmi Devi.
He was educated privately.
At that time, the king of Nepal had little power: the country was ruled by the Rana prime minister. The royal family was bereft of any real political leadership. The Sanad of 1856 had assigned all power to the Rana prime minister.
Crown Prince Trailokya, upon reaching his maturity in 1875, decided to regain the royal prerogatives that his father had lost in 1856.
With the help of Jagat Jang, a son of Jang Bahadur Rana, the crown prince set a plan by which the order of succession according to the 1856 Sanad would be put aside in the event of Jung Bahadur"s death. In such a case, Prince Trailokya would force King Surendra to abdicate and appoint Jagat Jang as the prime minister.
The plan was, however, unsuccessful. As Prince Trailokya and Jagat Jang rushed to Patharghat, Dhir Shamsher compelled King Surendra to appoint Ranodip Singh Kunwar as the next prime minister, as per the laws of succession.
Crown Prince Trailokya died in 1878, in suspicious circumstances.
