A heartfelt condolence to Girija Prasad Koirala one of the most powerful politician so far..

I was on my way to meet a friend of mine.. Had an exam coming the day after.. But it was important to meet her. As i was on my way my cell rang.. It was my friend from NSC.. The students' union of Nepali Congress.. Then he told me that Girija Prasad Koirala was no more..
I remember two days back when the old man was seriously ill.. But somehow the doctors saved him.. All those slines, those pipes, and those crazy looking medical gadgets beeping by his side.. The doctors had told the media he was 'out of danger'.. N in those tea shops i heard people rumbling about how that 'old man' didn't die. How he still lived.. N it suprised me to see how sad they were..
How sad they were that the national hero.. A freedom fighter.. A true leader.. A person with an idea.. A person with a vision was still with us. Didn't they know that he played an important role in the peace process?? Were they unaware that he was the one fighting for democracy when most of them were probably hiding from the government.. Enjoying what little 'rights' the then goverment gave them.. How ungrateful can humans be??
How ungrateful.. How agonizing.. How disgusting.
His death is an uncompareable loss to the nation.. He was the true guardian.. Although his age, body was not in tune to his thoughts.. Although he was that old.. He still fought for freedom.. He fought for the people. Maybe his decisions weren't always right.. Maybe he did some grave mistakes.. But everyone does mistakes. Can few mistakes overshadow great deeds of any person??
Girija Prasad Koirala was continuously involved in politics for 70 years.. N its not a joke to dedicate ones life for other people.. To fight for freedom of other..
But what i saw at the funeral ceremony shocked me.. It was moreover like a marriage ceremony than a funeral.. All those whistles, cheers, smile on the faces of the politicians.. What do they expect to do without Girija babu.. Do they think they'll last long on the government?? Do they think they can do it??
It made me belive that politics is infact a cruel game.. A cruel game indeed with no mercy and a race for the chair. A bloody race.. N nothing else.

Despite of everything else.. May his soul rest in peace.. He's fought for all of his life.. He must be tired.. Let him rest.. He'll never be disturbed..
May his dreams be fulfilled..
N may the nation prosper.
Jai Nepal!!
