Prime Minister Krishna Prasad Bhattarai has registered Prakash Koirala’s name in the list of prime minister’s candidates.

Though he is from Koirala family, he is intellectually close to a person like the former Panchayati Prime Minister Marich Man Singh. He has the guts to oppose India in spite of the money and facility he gets from the deep love of Indian people for his daughter Manisha Koirala, who is a top actress in Mumbai. Despite his protest against former prime minister Koirala, he gets support from him also. He blames Khum Bahadur Khada as Mafia agent, Khum Bahadur does his best to support him. Prime Minister Bhattarai, who is against Koiralas, has also been impressed by him. It is because of this, the government has now shifted from Singhdurbar to Rautahat. He does not need to say a word. He does not need to spend. Which other person is such a lucky MP? He was MP in the past too. But, neither did he spoke in the parliament nor he visited his constituency.

Possibly, he will do the same thing this time too. But he can afford to do this because he is the son of B.P. and also because, he is the nephew of Girija Prasad Koirala.

Prakash Koirala has won the election even before the first vote was cast. He will be honoured by many medals within a couple of days. It is a tradition of Nepalese politics. Nobody likes remembering his role during the people’s movement period. What contribution has he made for bringing democracy?

Nobody knows how may villages have been visited by him. But, presently, he has been presented to disrespect Girija Prasad Koirala.
