    ……………….. well what Nepal achieved in G regime is still ???? G Fk the country, conspired for chair until his dead. In fact if possible G would have taken presidency chair with him in his grave. He was not great from any angle, he was a shit and a taboo to Nepalese society. We should celebrate rather then moaning.

    Long leave Nepal.

    Despite of the fact that he did PHD in corruption, we must not forget his contribution for Nepali Politics in the last 5 years.
    Corruption was his -ve aspect, regarding the +ve part he played a key role to end the blood war. We people at Kathmandu could have only read or heard about the blood war, but there were many many families that were smashed in the blood war. He gave a full stop to it not only by bringing Maoists to table talk and consititution, but leaded the 7 parties in outhrowing Shahs.
    So, lets learn to appreciate.

    No doubt about many of his hurting corruption acts, he should always be taken an example as we have very small pool of leaders with clean image .Even Rajiv Gandhi’s case for “Bofors scandal worth Rs 640 million” still on investigation.None politics are 100% clean …..so need to look the positive side ….
    Would like to request all of you with with my comment or against it to give some respect to the departed soul….
    May his Soul live in peace ….
