KATHMANDU, Sept 9: Nepali Congress (NC) President Sher Bahadur Deuba has described BP Koirala as a multidimensional personality. Speaking at a literary festival organized by the Nepali Writers Association in Kathmandu on Monday at the Sundarijal Museum to mark BP Koirala's birthday, Deuba said, "BP was a great man of a small country."

"I often refer to BP Koirala as a great man of a small country. He was not only influential in politics but also made significant contributions to literature. He authored several notable books."

Deuba emphasized that there is still much to learn about Koirala.

Noting that Koirala had been imprisoned in Sundarijal, he said, "We are holding this program at the very place where he was imprisoned on his birthday. It highlights the suffering and struggle he endured. Sundarijal serves as a source of inspiration for us."
