BP´s sons Prakash, Shreeharsha and Dr. Sasanka Koirala and daughter Chetana had taken advance payment of Rs. 3.5 million to sell the ancestral land (8 kaththa 13 dhur) of Biratnagar sub-metropolis-9 to Birat Housing Company in around 500 millions, informed NC Morang president Amrit Aryal.
The party announced to purchase the historic asset claiming NC´s moral right on the area where three sons of ideal father late Krishna Prasad Koirala - Matrika, Bisheswor and Girija - were brought up and had sowed the seed of politics to bring the nation to this stage, added President Aryal.
He also announced to purchase the land by raising fund from the leaders and cadres associated to the NC across the country and pledged to turn it into a museum in the name of these political giants.
President Aryal informed that he would flare up the issue of ancestral land in upcoming Mahasamiti meeting of the party to prevent its sale to the Housing Company at any cost and added it is the shared responsibility of entire NC cadres to preserve and protect the historically important area.
NC Morang President Aryal also called on all leaders and cadres of the NC to get united to materialize this campaign which will serve greater significance in coming days.
