    BP Koirala

    Nepalese politician and writer

    Bishweshwar Prasad Koirala (Nepali: विश्वेश्वरप्रसाद कोइराला; 8 September 1914 – 21 July 1982), better known as B. P. Koirala (Nepali: बीपी कोइराला), was a Nepali revolutionary, political leader, and writer. He was the Prime Minister of Nepal from 1959 to 1960.[2] He led the Nepali Congress, a social democraticpolitical party. He was the grandfather of Bollywood actors Manisha Koirala and Siddharth Koirala, the elder brother of former prime minister Girija Prasad Koirala and the younger brother of former prime minister Matrika Prasad Koirala.

    Koirala was the first democraticallyelected and 22nd Prime Minister of Nepal. He held the office for 18 months before being deposed and imprisoned on the instruction of King Mahendra. The rest of his life was spent largely in prison or exile and in steadily deteriorating health.[3][4]

    Widely regarded as one of the greatest political personalities in Nepal, Koirala was a staunch supporter of democracy. He asserted that guarantees of individual liberty and civil and political rights alone were not sufficient in a poor country like Nepal, and that democratic socialism was the solution to Nepal's underdevelopment.[5][6]

Ad hoc events that turned out to be historical, in the case of politicians, can enter the autobiographies as well planned, informed events. Humans, after all, want to manufacture an image of oneself that is different from the common person’s.

    Bishweshwar Prasad Koirala's autobiography is a notable exception. In Ramachandra Guha’s words, “it is a remarkable document of personal and social history…” Another notable fact about the book is that B.P did not write it down; there was no time for indulgence in the exercise of vanity, “forget” personal failures, and appropriate to his credit successes of collective effort. The dying B.P (he suffered from cancer) narrated his life to his lawyer and it was tape-recorded. It was not published until the late 1990s when the Nepali King Birendra restored democracy that his father had suspended after arresting and jailing the first democratically elected Prime Minister B.P Koirala in the 60s.

    B.P was a man of many ta
