A guard at the guest house of Nepal Rashtra Bank did not open the door to president of Nepali Congress Party Girija Prasad Koirala who went there for a brief rest in Birgunj Friday, party sources said.

The aide claimed that the office had booked a room for Koirala at the guest house one week ago.

The former prime minister then went to rest at a hotel in the town.

Koirala was in the area to inaugurate a meeting of the student wing of the party.
