Sujata jee,

 

I have been wanting to write you for a long time but today, I could not wait anymore.

 

BTW, congratulations on you appointment for the post of a minister without portfolio and you will be looking after the office of your Prime Minister dad. The spot light you got, did not draw array of mixed reactions. Those who opposed did not carry any significance. But, your political foes must have gotten scared, as your dad took out a list of ministers from his grey coat at the premises of Singha Durbar with your name. This brought  you  one step closer to your dream of becoming a Prime Minister of Nepal and carry the legacy of Koirala clan. I also learnt that you are in the third position in the chain of command of the Nepali Congress Party. This must have put you in lots of pressure to command, control and contribute to the Congress party. In the past, you have been accused and associated with the scandals of Lauda, Dhamija, sandlewood and now the proposed selling of historical Nepalese Embassy in London recently to steel giant  Laxmi Mittal. To strengthen your leadership and increase grasp within the party, you will definitely need more resources and financial backings, so you will be getting very seriously involved in ways to raise more money. This may lead you to more moral and immoral issues. Since there are no questions of accountability rising within or outside of the party, and as long as you contribute to the welfare of the party, you will be all fine. You have the capability to annihilate who go against you. You have been an international relation specialist, a central committee member and a nominated member of the parliament of the party. You will get away easily as previous who were considered defaulters but came out clean from the judiciary. You will be appointing those judges.  After all, even Girija Babu set us with examples of printing fake money to run the party. I had been reminding myself constantly that there is no clean and fiscally responsible political party with any tinted records. So what ever you do or did, you should be all fine. Just make sure that you keep your shopping sprees hidden from the public eyes.  

 

Actually, I am pretty surprised not to hear that much of or any opposition on you appointment to the minister ship.  Now you have a big ship to navigate. The so called intelligentsias, opposition political parties, civil societies and oppositions within your own congress party were all quiet. Girija Babu, with his skills and management with surgical precisions (and, of course, your diligence to make him listen to you), must have dissected their barking tongues out. A nicely done piece of work like art !!  But yet the danger does not stop there and will keep on lingering as your oppositions might try to make this an issue during elections (If at all it takes place). What a grand design !!

 

I do know how good a Prime Minister you would be! After all, people from Nepal have never chosen a PM with developmental agenda, social justice or someome raise the living standard of common Nepali, so you are not be any different than others. For you to come to power, you need more heads not the contents, which you have been working on. I am sure you are bringing in more heads that nod to your commands and clap to your speeches. Knowing you from the surface, you will do very well to yourself and your supporters when (if- is not the word of choice) you become a Prime Minister. Regarding the development of Nepal, it will take its natural course. Who has been serious about that up to now?  After all who has become a PM of Nepal who has vision and with agenda to develop, and plan for the future? As in the past, you should be just fine with what ever capabilities you have.

 

In the mean time, from now onwards, I would like to document your daily activities, your great speeches, thoughts and your personal achievement as archives (yet unauthorized documentation) until you become a Prime Minister of Nepal.

 

At the end, I would like to remind you that I am not associated with any political parties, but as a citizen of Nepal, I am interested in developing events and every day happening.

 

Please do not take this as a way to impress you.

 

Yours,

 

Shirish

I beg your pardon for some of the inaccuracies.

NB: I will be ridiculed if you don't become a PM of Nepal, please work hard to become one.

Tamang Khola

Girija dhanya hoina, karyakarta, neta haru niraha hun !

Why isn't she and her dad in jail ? Knowing the fact that their wealth exceeds their salary by 50 folds.  They need to show the source of that amassed wealth.  If they cannot, the govt should confiscate them  Wonder what our Most Competent Finance Minister in Nepali History Dr Babulal Dhatrai have to say about this...hmm... 

What a disgrace!!!

Sujata Koirala is my auntie. leave my aunt alone. She is a politician who will develop Nepal into
Switzerland. why are you people after her without any proof?

I did not know that Sujata is Kirati too

Sujata to take oath of office on Thursday
	REPUBLICA KATHMANDU, June 4: Despite stiff opposition within the Nepali Congress, Sujata Koirala will take oath of office as a minister on Thursday, said a senior UML leader close to Prime Minister Madav Kumar Nepal. The UML leader said, “If Girija Prasad Koirala himself does not request to defer it, Sujata will take oath of office on Thursday.” When the leader was reminded of the growing opposition within the NC about her leading the party into the government, he said, “Prime Minister also has his limitations and he cannot ignore the request of Girija Prasad Koirala unless the party forces him to rethink,” he said. The Prime Minister is learnt to have made up the mind to swear in Koirala as a minister following his meeting with former Prime Minister and senior NC leader Sher Bahadur Deuba and another NC leader Krishna Prasad Sitaula this morning. “May be they conveyed Girijababu´s message to the prime minister,” he said. But the UML leader wasn´t sure if she would be sworn in as a foreign minister.

prem chopda just like a Newar has been defined as an inhabitant of the Valley of Nepal in which the the term Nepal is believed to be originated from 'Swasti Naipalavya' inscribed in three inscriptions of Tistung. (One dated 512 AD & other two dated 607 AD) in which 'Naipalavya' means the Nepals i.e. plural form of Nepal. Therefore you are correct to say that she is Kirati because the term 'Kirat Pradesh' can be found in earlier documents.

anyway she is my auntie who sponsor me for my college's education. no hard feeling brother but archeology does not show favoritism. they just utter whatever findings and written work there is blatantly.

anyway to all the guys i have to tell you that my aunt is married.
so unless you come out with substantial evidence for her arrest, she is NOT guilty!

सुजातालाई खुला अस्वीकार

I think the pending project of selling off our embassy in London will gain momentum now in a war pace !

who acknowledges the fact that she was involved in women trafficking tooo?

India wants Girija/Sujata and other NC leaders on India's payroll to remain NC within Koirala family. No other family in Nepal has served India than Koirala family. India will not allow any other leader to control NC. Within NC there are leaders like Narahari Acharya, Gagan Thapa, and Sushil Koirala who have visions, ethics, and inspirations to do more than what Maoists claim to do and get done but those leaders will not serve India as much as Girija and his band of theives would. As Girija is dying, it makes sense for India to bring another half mind donkey Sujata on the line to work for them.

Watch out for Sujata

A black flag was shown to Sujata Koirala, our newly appointed foreign minister, in Pokhara when she was on a visit there after assuming office. Those who don't like her, and, in fact, many don't like her, must be delighted to see her being publicly so derided. But, on the contrary, she should feel overjoyed by this act of open derision because a black flag is not all that bad. It is recognition of her personae in politics and power. No longer is she merely the daughter of Nepali Congress (NC) president Girija Prasad Koirala. She is now leader of the NC representing her party in the coalition cabinet. She has now crossed the kinship boundary and opened up a new vista of her own. Sujata is fast coming up leaving many of her party stalwarts behind.
She overcame the first hurdle to this coveted position by sidelining senior leaders of her party like vice president Sushil Koirala and general secretary Ram Chandra Paudel, who fumed in fury at her and her invincible father, but ended in habitual nothingness.

Technically, they lost their point as Girija Prasad Koirala, exercising the newly vested decision-making power on the choice of the leader of the party to join the Madhav Nepal government by none other than the central committee, selected his daughter to do so. He was asked to use his discretion, and he used it. Was it morally wrong? Who cares for morals in politics, that too in our lokatantric Nepal?
We know that even Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal had asked NC president Girija Prasad Koirala to rethink his choice of Sujata for the cabinet berth she has now occupied. He has, of course, no choice but to accept her as his redoubtable colleague, whether he likes it or not. Everyone is aware how helpless he is in the picking of his cabinet members from different coalition partners. The jumbo cabinet is not his option, but a compulsion. There will indeed be more and more compulsions forthcoming to keep the team intact. He can, at least, depend upon Sujata's full support till he can survive in his position of premiership. The day his position starts dwindling, earlier than later, he will be obliged to lend his full support to her in her bid for the premiership. The only hurdle left in this process is to get her ushered into the Constituent Assembly (CA), and she can and will follow none other but Madhav Kumar Nepal's footsteps getting an entry into that legislative body.
As far as the Maoists are concerned, Sujata has already curried favour with them on the Katawal controversy. She was hobnobbing with them during the peak of the heat generated by that issue when her party was vehemently attacking the Maoists, who were then in power, for hatching a conspiracy to seize power. Her plan to join the Prachanda cabinet was confirmed when there was a call for disciplinary action against her within her own party. The plan did not fructify, nor did the penalty come forth. What the whole exercise did was to establish her as a force to reckon with in her party, which she subsequently demonstrated by joining yet another leftist government of the CPN-UML, if not the UCPN-Maoist. When she seeks the support of the Maoists in forming a new government under her leadership, they will have to oblige her irrespective of their like or dislike for the person. They might even justify it for want of an opportunity to form a government under their own leadership and for want of a better acceptable alternative to lead the next government. Moreover, supporting Sujata will fulfil the great Maoist agenda of installing a woman in the seat of the prime minister.
India, on its part, will be more than pleased to see her rise to this highest executive position. It was evident from her undiplomatic statement on the Dang border incident to the Nepalese press in front of the Indian diplomat, Rakesh Sood. It appeared as if she took the words from the mouth of Sood in denying in clear terms any untoward happening across the border. She spoke in public before she had actually time to inquire and learn the truth in private. Even if she was right in substance, she was awfully wrong in manner. Being an adept tactician, Sujata lost face before us to win a great favour in New Delhi where she had paid a meaningful visit a few months ago apparently to canvass for her candidature to the head of government. If India has its way, which it always has, she is well poised to go down in history as the first woman prime minister of Nepal, a high probability in lokatantric Nepal.
If all this political and diplomatic support is not enough to fulfil her ambition to attain the highest office, Sujata has made sure to add strength in her favour from the Nepal Army. She showed her love for Gen. Khadka, but did not hate Gen. Katawal. What does it matter who is out and who is in till the incumbent commander is ready to salute her? That is how she has positioned herself vis-à-vis the army personnel dispute. In fact, she can keep both the contending generals happy, unlike Prachanda, by conferring good rewards sans punishment. The Nepal Army, in fact, would feel more comfortable working under a workaholic than a talkative person, a more conciliatory person than a provocative politician. Would Sujata not be the best preference in that sense going by its bitter relations with the civilian authorities?
The last but not the least decisive factor in catapulting her to the top is the stars favouring the losers against the winners in the national polls. If Madhav Kumar Nepal could cross all the barriers caused by his electoral loss to reach his goal, how could Sujata Koirala be left behind with the same fate of being an electoral loser in the race to win the game?

परराष्ट्र मन्त्रीको भारत भ्रमण: व्यक्तिगत उचाइ बढाउँदै

दिनेश वाग्ले

नयाँदिल्ली, दुई देशको सम्बन्धलाई नयाँ उचाइमा पुर्‍याउनेबाहेक परराष्ट्रमन्त्री सुजाता कोइरालाको शुक्रबार सकिएको भारत भ्रमणको अर्को उद्देश्य पनि थियो जो सार्वजनिक गरिएको थिएन । त्यो हो, नेपाली कांग्रेसभित्र र पार्टीका भारतीय शुभचिन्तकमाझ आफ्नो राजनीतिक उचाइ बढाउने ।

पार्टीभित्रको संघर्ष र केही वरिष्ठ नेताहरूको असन्तुष्टिबीच तीन महिनाअघि सरकारमा कांग्रेसको नेतृत्व गर्दै पराराष्ट्रमन्त्रीको बाजी मारेकी थिइन् कोइरालाले । केही वर्षयता काठमाडौंमा कूटनीतिज्ञहरूलाई प्रधानमन्त्रीसँग लगभग असीमित पहुँच मिल्दा परराष्ट्र सरकार प्रमुखको छायामा हराउँथ्यो । गिरिजाप्रसादको नेतृत्वको पछिल्लो सरकारकी परराष्ट्रमन्त्री साहना प्रधानले त्यसबारे सार्वजनिक टिप्पणी नै गरेकी थिइन् । यो सरकारमा प्रधानमन्त्रीको भन्दा ठूलो पार्टीको प्रतिनिधित्व गर्ने कोइरालाले पहिलो भारत यात्रामार्फत परराष्ट्रलाई प्रधानमन्त्रीको छायाबाट निकालेको उनका समर्थकको विश्वास छ ।

'पार्टीमा त अब शशांकहरूले नचिताए हुन्छ,' सुजातासँगै भारत आएका उनका एक सहयोगीले कांग्रेस र कोइराला परिवारमा सुजाताका प्रतिस्पर्धी मानिने व्यक्तिको नाम लिँदै भने, 'मन्त्री हुँदै उनको हैसियत बढेको थियो । अब यो भ्रमणपछि त अरूले -सुजातालाई उछिन्ने) नसोचे हुन्छ ।'

कोइरालाले आफ्नो भ्रमणलाई लगभग 'प्रधानमन्त्रीय' जस्तै बनाएकी थिइन् । सरकारी र गैरसरकारी उच्च नेतृत्वलाई खोजीखोजी भेट्नुबाहेक उनले आफ्नै अग्रसरतामा यहाँस्थित एउटा विश्वविद्यालयमा कार्यक्रम गराएर त्यसलाई सम्बोधन गरिन्, 'कोइराला छात्रवृत्ति' को घोषणा भएको सुनिन्, अर्को एउटा कलेजमा 'सम्मान' समारोह गराएर भारतीय व्यापारीहरूलाई सुरक्षाको ग्यारेन्टी आफैं लिने आश्वासन दिँदै नेपालमा लगानी गर्न बोलाइन् ।

केहीअघि भारत आएकी अर्की मन्त्री विद्या भण्डारीको तुलनामा कोइरालाको भ्रमण निश्चितै 'हाइप्रोफाइल' थियो । मुख्यतः उपचार गर्न आएकी रक्षामन्त्री भण्डारीसँग निजी सहायकसम्म थिएनन् भने भारतीय विदेश सचिवसँगको भेटमा उनकी छोरी उषाकिरणले सहयोगीको भूमिका खेलेर आमालाई खुसी तुल्याएकी थिइन् ।

कोइराला यहाँ परराष्ट्रका सचिवसहितको एउटा टोली लिएर आएकी थिइन् र उनलाई सघाउनेमा यहाँस्थित नेपाली दूतावासबाहेक उनका निजी सचिव र सल्लाहकार थिए । भारतीय मिडियाको सानै शीर्षकमा भए पनि कोइरालाले ध्यान तानिन् र नेपालमा यात्राको राम्रो प्रचार दिलाउन यता आउनु एक दिनअघि मन्त्रिपरिषदको निर्णय गराएर नेपाल टीभीका पत्रकार/क्यामेराम्यान डेलिगेसनकै सदस्यका रूपमा ल्याएकी थिइन् ।

पछिल्लोपटक पाँच महिनाअघि सुजाता बिरामी बुवा गिरिजाप्रसाद कोइरालालाई उपचार गराउन भारत आएकी थिइन् । त्यतिखेर र अघिल्ला भ्रमणहरूमा गिरिजाप्रसादले यहाँका उच्च नेतृत्वसँग भेट्दा उनको भूमिका पाहुनालाई होटलको मुख्य गेटदेखि स्वागत गरेर बुवा बसेको कोठासम्म लैजानुमा सीमित थियो । तीमध्येका केही नेता यसपालि उनैलाई भेट्न ताजमहल होटलको आठौं तलासम्म पुगेका थिए । 'विदेशमन्त्रीको रूपमा स्वागत छ भारतमा,' नमस्ते गर्दैगर्दा प्रभावशाली कम्युनिस्ट नेता सीताराम यचुरीले सुजातालाई भने । लालु, मुलायमसिंह र शरद यादवजस्ता वरिष्ठ नेताहरूलाई भेट्न आफैं तिनका निवास पुगेकी थिइन् ।

उनले पाँचदिने भ्रमणमा भएसम्मका उच्च व्यक्ति भेट्न र अन्तक्रिर्या गर्न चाहेकी थिइन् जसले गर्दा सहयोगीहरूलाई समय मिलाउन हम्मे परेको थियो । -अन्तिम दिन शुक्रबार उनले भाजपाका नेता राजनाथ सिंहसँग भेटिन् । प्रयास गरेका सोनिया र राहुल गान्धीसँग मात्र कोइरालाको भेट हुन सकेन । मन्त्री र केही नेतालाई मायादेवीको चाँदीको मूर्ति दिएकी कोइरालाले राहुललाई सुन पोतिएको मूर्ति दिने योजना बनाएकी थिइन् ।) 'छाड्नुस् तपाईंहरू, मेरो भेटघाटको समय मैं मिलाउँछु,' बैठकहरूको समय जुधेपछि अप्ठ्यारोमा परेकी कोइरालाले र्झकंदै निजी सहयोगीलाई भनिन्, समयतालिका अठ्याइन् र कुर्सीमा बसिन् ।

भेटघाटको चापले उनलाई थकित पारेको थियो र एउटा टीभीलाई अन्तर्वार्ता दिनलाग्दा उनलाई थुप्रैपटक हाइ आएको थियो ।

त्यस्ता हरेक भेट र अन्तक्रिर्यात्मक कार्यक्रमहरूमा सुजाताले 'गिरिजाबाबुले यसो गर्दै हुनुहुन्छ,' या 'गिरिजाबाबुले सम्भिmनुभएको छ' जस्ता वाक्यहरूको प्रयोग गर्दै आफूलाई नेपालको कोइराला परिवारको एकैमात्र उत्तराधिकारीका रूपमा प्रस्तुत गरिन् । कतिपय ठाउँमा उनका लागि बोलिदिने भारतीयहरू नै थिए । 'उहाँ एसियाली लोकतन्त्रको एउटा नयाँ अनुहार,' जवाहरलाल नेहरू विश्वविद्यालय -जेएनयू) मा आयोजित अन्तक्रिर्यामा नेपाली कांग्रेसका शभेच्छुक भारतीय प्राध्यापक आनन्द कुमारले कोइरालाको प्रशंसाले भरिएको एउटा मन्तव्यमा भने,

'उहाँहरू प्रतिज्ञा गर्ने र त्यसलाई आफ्नो जीवन अवधिमा पूरा गर्ने २१ औं शताब्दीका व्यक्तिहरू । उहाँको परिवारले लोकतन्त्रका लागि लड्यो र जीवन गुमायो ।'

कोइरालाले पनि आफ्नो लिखित मन्तव्यमा ठूलोबुवा बीपी र बुवाको सम्झना गर्दै भारतसँगको सम्बन्ध आफू मन्त्री हुँदानहुँदा उस्तै प्रगाढ रहने

बताइन् । त्यसै कार्यक्रममा नेपाली लोकतान्त्रिक आन्दोलनमा कोइराला परिवारले पुर्‍याएको योगदानको

सम्मान गर्न जेएनयूले 'कोइराला छात्रवृत्ति' स्थापना गर्ने घोषणा 'स्कुल अफ इन्टरनेसनल स्टडिज' का डीन प्राध्यापक योगेश त्यागीले गरे ।

मन्त्रीका रूपमा गरेको पहिलो भारत भ्रमणमा आफूलाई राजनीतिक रूपले प्रवर्द्धन गर्ने सन्दर्भमा कोइराला सफल भएकी हुनुपर्छ तर दुई देशबीचको सम्बन्ध नयाँ उचाइमा पुर्‍याउने कुरामा सबैको मत एउटै नहुन सक्छ । नेपाली पक्षबाट माग्ने मात्रै र भारतबाट आश्वासन मिल्नु मात्रैलाई भ्रमण सफल भएको मान्ने हो भने कोइरालाको यो यात्रा पूरै सफल भयो । उनले अघिल्ला मन्त्री या प्रधानमन्त्रीको झैं भारतबाट थुप्रै आश्वासन बटुलिन् जो शब्दबाट काममा बदलिने कुरामा विगतलाई हेर्दा धेरै आशावादी हुन भने सकिँदैन ।

कोइराला भारत भ्रमण सकी शुक्रबार नेपाल फर्किएकी  छन् । त्रिभुवन अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय विमानस्थलमा पत्रकारहरूलाई उनले भनिन्, 'मैले नेपालका सबै विषयमा कुरा उठाएँ, उहाँहरू सहयोगका लागि सकारात्मक हुनुहन्छ ।'

This Sujata woman makes me feel like vomitting...

परराष्ट्र मन्त्री भारत गइनन्

What's wrong with that? Such an iconic lady representing the whole Nepalese should not only be made deputy Prime Minister rather i suggest she should be made Prime minister of our country. 

This thread is getting more and more interesting ! Thanks to you, Shirish.

She is shining like a star my ass...her shining will last till the day girija budho is alive, after that koirala family (not even nepalese people) will outcast her from politics.  This budho is so cunning.....He knew that she would not get DPM in the first place and thats why he asked for FM for her and after a month when everything settled down then he asked for DPM. Because of this LOVI budho kangressi are going khola kholai...Hahahaha..I love my angrezi

Really, is that true gaine? 

Yes Raju its 100% true and please keep follow this thread.

The Central Committee (CC) members of the Nepali Congress (NC) have criticised Foreign Minister Sujata Koirala for withdrawing from prime minister’s delegation to India in the last hour.
 
Speakers during the central committee meeting of the party on Wednesday asked the party leadership to furnish reasons behind her refusal to accompany the delegation violating diplomatic norms.

The CC members also rubbished reports that Koirala refrained from joining the delegation protesting Prime Minister’s denial to promote her as Deputy Prime Minister.

“The party has not demanded DPM portfolio in the current cabinet and the demand for promotion was her personal interest,” party spokesperson Arjun Narsingh KC told reporters after the meeting.

Some also demanded immediate withdrawal of Koirala from the government for working against the party mandate.
