Posted by Anup Baral September 23, 2014


Nanda Prasad Adhikari, who was on a fast-unto-death against the killing of his son during Maoist conflict (1996-2006), has passed away on Monday evening. Director of Bir Hospital, Dr Swayam Prakash Pandit said Adhikari died while undergoing treatment at the hospital. Nanda Prasad and his wife Ganga Maya were on a fast unto death for the past 11 months demanding legal action against those involved in their son Krishna Prasad's murder. Nanda Prasad was on the fast-unto-death along with his wife Ganga Maya Adhikari for past 332 days. Adhikari's body could not even absorb nutrients fed through pipe. Bir Hospital had informed two months ago that the hospital could do nothing to save the Adhikari couple. Ganga Maya's condition is also very critical. Nanda Prasad passed away at 4:24 p.m. The hospital made the news of his death public at 5 p.m.
