Girija Prasad Koirala Died — Today, Nepalese must be in mourning after their former Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala died Saturday at the age of 85. As we can read from several news all over the net, many reported that Girija Prasad Koirala passed away at his daughter’s home in Kathmandu. Remembering Girija Prasad Koirala, he’s one actor that ended the 10 years of civil war in Nepal. Just before he died, Koirala had been suffering from respiratory disease several years.

Witnesses said thousands of people had gathered at his daughter’s home to pay their respects to the four-time prime minister, a member of a political dynasty credited with helping to bring democracy to Nepal.
Koirala led the Himalayan nation through some of its biggest upheavals including its most notorious upset when 10 members of the royal family were shot dead by the crown prince in a drunken rampage.
May Girija Prasad Koirala rest in peace.
