G P Koirala critical,admitted to hospital

Koirala was rushed to the hospital on Tuesday morning after he developed breathing problem. As a result,he could not give advice to the central committee members of the party who had assembled at his Maharajgunj residence. Koirala had called the meeting a day prior to his planned departure to Singapore.

A series of political set-backs and the recent humiliation that he suffered in the party circle as a result of his nominating his daughter as the Deputy Prime Minister against the party quota in the coalition government,some think,is directly linked with the sudden deterioration in his health.
