Govt to construct GPK memorial park in Bhaktapur

The government has decided to construct a park in Duwakot of Bhaktapur in the honour of the Late Nepali Congress president and five-time Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala.

A meeting of the caretaker cabinet on Friday took this decision. A life-size statue of the Late
Congress leader will also be constructed at the park.

The GPK memorial park is being constructed in recognition of the contribution of
Late Koirala to for establishment of peace and democracy in the country.

The veteran Congress leader fought for democracy for most of his life and played the most important role in bringing the Maoists to the peace process. He died on March 20 this year at the age
of 86. nepalnews.com
