Recent measurements of |V{sub us}| from kaon decays strongly support the unitarity of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. The unitarity provides a stringent constraint on the parameter space of the nonuniversal gauge interaction model based on the separate SU(2){sub L} gauge group acting on the third generation fermions. I show that this constraint is stronger than those from the CERN LEP and SLC data and low-energy experiment data.
