Girija Prasad Koirala, (born 1925, Bihar state, India—died March 20, 2010, Kathmandu, Nepal), Indian-born Nepalese politician who served four times as prime minister of Nepal (1991–94, 1998–99, 2000–01, 2006–08).Koirala was a member of the most prominent political family in Nepal. His older brothers both served as prime minister: Matrika Prasad Koirala in 1951–52 and 1953–55 and Bisheshwar Prasad Koirala from 1959 until King Mahendra overthrew the government in December 1960. Bisheshwar Prasad and Girija Prasad were subsequently imprisoned. After his release in 1967, Girija Prasad went into exile with other leaders of the Nepali Congress Party (NCP) and did not return to Nepal until 1979.
In 1990 Koirala was a leader of the People’s Movement (Jana Andolan), which achieved a restoration of democracy in Nepal. He was elected to the parliament in 1991 and served his first term as prime minister from 1991 to 1994. Factional disputes within the NCP brought that government down. In 1995 Koirala won the presidency of the NCP, and he was named prime minister again in April 1998. He headed a minority government until the end of the year, when he formed a coalition. In elections in May 1999, the NCP won an absolute majority, but Koirala’s intraparty rival, Krishna Prasad Bhattarai, became prime minister. In March 2000, however, Koirala ousted Bhattarai by withholding support and became prime minister for a third time.
