New Delhi: Nepal's Prime Minister G P Koirala has come up with some startling confessions.

In an interview to Kantipur TV recently, Koirala revealed he was involved in manufacturing fake Indian currency.

Koirala confessed he made fake currency notes during political exile in India in the early 1970s.

The 82-year-old, who's been Nepal PM four times, was talking about his past political life. He said he had hired experts to produce the notes, and even deposited them in a bank.

Koirala also claimed that along with a team of Nepali Congress leaders, he hijacked a Nepal Airlines flight from Biratnagar to Kathmandu in 1973. He said that all this happened with the knowledge and consent of B P Koirala, Nepal's legendary socialist leader and the country's first elected prime minister.

Allegedly, R N Rao, the then chief of India's external intelligence agency RAW, helped him in the hijacking.

Koirala had the fake currency produced at the residence of former Rajya Sabha member Dr Devendra Prasad Singh in Patna. Singh, a leader of the Praja Socialist Party, died in 2002

Koirala’s nephew and fellow MP with the Nepal Congress defended his uncle and said that these confessions must be seen in the context of the revolution of 1970 when the Nepal Congress was in exile.

“The story happened in 1970 when we were fighting against autocratic rule. Whatever the Prime Minister has said in the interview is right,” Shekhar Koirala confirmed.

“There hasn't been much criticism from political parties but there is some criticism, as he is PM,” he said, exhorting, “You must ask why he did it, in what circumstances he did it. It was the time of revolution and the Nepal Congress was in exile.”

PM Koirala says "Oops I made a RAWLY mistake"

BY OUR DIPLOMATIC CORRESPONDENT You must have heard many times of correction for an incorrectly printed material in a newspaper. But have you ever heard of a "correction" for a "misquoted" memoir being telecast live from a television channel? People's Review's last week's edition had published a revelation that PM G.P. Koirala himself made through his own voice and face regarding India's intelligence agency R&AW's involvement in the hijacking of the RNAC flight in 1973. As an old man, Koirala must have thought that bringing everything out about R&AW's influence in his life through the memoir being aired by Jagat Nepal in Kantipur TV will be a good contribution to the future generation of Nepalese. He has done this before regarding the then Indian Ambassador pestering Koirala about leaking what transcribed between Koirala and late King Mahendra so as to sabotage the budding relationship between the palace and the Nepali Congress back then. Hence, he said everything including secret things like his association with fake currency makers, smugglers of enriched uranium, etc. This was very correctly transcribed verbatim in the "Nepal" weekly magazine also.

RAW and plane hijacking
Prime Minister GP Koirala has of late been revealing his years of political adventurism. He has admitted having been involved in counterfeiting Indian currency notes while in exile in India. He also recently admitted that he was lured towards gold smuggling to raise money for ‘struggle for democracy in Nepal’ but had to give it up on BP Koirala’s advice. Koirala however, has claimed that he got into the fake currency business with the consent and knowledge of the legendary BP Koirala.
GP Koirala has however, withdrawn the content of his version regarding his involvement in the hijacking of Royal Nepal Aircraft in 1975 and robbery of Rs. 40 lakhs. Koirala had stated that the hijacking of the aircraft that took off from Kathmandu was done after the then Chief of RAW cleared his move.
Although the interviewee has taken the blame for the content saying, “it was wrong translation of what GP Koirala had said in Hindi,” there are repeated references of the event in Nepali in which the PM quotes BP Koirala categorically asking what the government of India would do after the hijacking.
GP’s answer to BP, in his own words was that government of India would not do anything to the hijackers. There are reports that a senior official of the Indian embassy in Kathmandu approached the PM, about the damage that his confession could cause to the image of RAW as an outfit that encouraged terrorist activities like plane hijacking.

I heard/read that - B.P. Koirala used to say - Girija is like hawaldar (means not using enough thought, but act on muscle power and having lack of analytical thoughts) and he is appropriate for guarding the gate. I felt so when reading some of his self story like - attempt to send uranium to Israel or claiming the smuggled bags.......I agree NC was on exile at that time but to do illegal things such like these doesnot show he is a wise leader.......Real Hawaldar

it was not only girija dear, it was also BP who was involved in all this esp in the bank robbery and fake currnecy.

So that means....these brothers (Giri-Ja and B.P) were the maobadi of 70s ugh ?? no wonder ....

Why people have immortalised this quote that BP said that GP was fit only to be a hawaldar? What about BP? What type of a leader was he? Me seriously thinks he was no better than his bro GP - GP followed BP's way. So the root cause of this mess is BP not GP entirely. 

I agree with you GundrukTama.

It is true, he and all his followers were excused because they join the main stream and enter Nepal. His followers were

Duga Subadi

Pradeep Giri

Basnat Bhattrai

and Mr.XXXX who became the emassdor of India when Koirala became PM. We poor people are living on the faith of these lunatic politicians.

 

hyaaa mula buda.. katti bachna sakeo hola.. 5 times jati mantri banyo.. kehi na kehi.. ahile ta jhan 16 hrs batti bandha kathmandu ma.. gas chaina.. kehi chiana.. ke kaam.. tetro ansan basera kehi satta hath parepachi.. kehi ta garnu parne ni.. ki ta aba bachnu ki marnu girija.. they are all the rotten tomato.. yo buda haru bhayesamma Nepal ko kehi hunna jasto lagcha.. sabha hunda.. sabai lai padkauna parne.. baru janata lai na no rule.. no sambhidhan bhanyo bhane ramro hola aba ta.. minister re.. FA**ing people..

Bineet, looking at the evidences it seems more likely that the Koirala clan could come to power again and again not because of their leadership qualities but because of their closeness to RAW and other Indian agencies. Its so shameful that we are being forced to acknowledge these thugs are our national leaders. And, no surprise the country is suffering, the people are suffering.

Yes, Poon Hill- they were the precursor of Maoists - they looted and caused mayhem everywhere for a short duration ( a couple of months) and were catapulted to power.

 

correction: these thugs as our national leaders

   यसले     देसको लाल्पुर्जा हुने भए त जमानामै तेही smuggler लाई बेची हिंड्ने रहिछ । एत्रो नौटन्की, उसको भाषामा चाँही ग्रन्ड डिजाईन गर्नै नपर्ने।

Koirala family would have been in shadow from nepalese political plaground long time back with the death of BP Koirala if Girija and his followers hadn't hijacked the plane full of money and started printing fake note in india.. Girija isn't in the hieght because of his intellectuality or wisdom but becuase he dared to do the bad deeds which he is proudly revealing now.. such a corrupt and immoral politician...

He also made sujata koirala as a  bina bivagiya mantri.

all koirala thing baluwatar is a familly buisness. 

नेपालीमा यौटा ऊखान छ नी, "घर मुली बाटो हगुवा"।

सधैं चोर, डाँका, बगलीमारा, मुर्ती चोर र तस्कर ले चलाएको देश त हो नि!

अचम्म लागेको कुरा त के हो भने त्यस्तो घृणित कार्यलाई "बाघ मारेको" वा महान कार्य गरे जस्तो गरी बयान गरिदैं छ।

 

And nepalese people are proud to see him as their king, f..king shit.., when people gonna open their eyes??Its like an old saying whenever people have to curse, they used to say tero ghar ma Kangress pasos!! this is exactly what has happend to our country!! jaha chandaal teha kangaal!!

Many times the second generation Koiralas like Sujata have mouthed many a times that Koirala word is not a family but an idea (Bichar). So utterly ridiculous.
