Will miss SBT in statute making‚ says PM

KATHMANDU, APR 16: Prime Minister Sushil Koirala said he will miss former Prime Minister Surya Bahadur Thapa in course of constitution writing.

Expressing condolence on demise of the veteran leader, Koirala on Thursday said, “We will feel absence of the experienced leader’s participation and mature suggestions in constitution writing.”

The 87-year-old leader had passed away during treatment at Gurgaon-based Medanta Hospital in India last night.

“The experienced politician’s company was inspiring all for making a democratic constitution,” the Prime Minister said, “Nepali politics has lost an ambitious, courageous, determined and liberal leader.”
