The sudden demise of Nepali Congress President Sushil Koirala has sparked a debate as to who will lead the establishment faction of the party against the rival group led by influential leader Sher Bahadur Deuba, at the upcoming general convention.

"He died a comfortable death. It was a good death indeed," it was what one could hear at every intersection of the Kathmandu Valley early Tuesday morning. I too wondered what's that 'good death' was and whose this was. The untimely demise of the Nepali Congress President and former Prime Minister Sushil Koirala that was spreading shock waves all across the country and Nepali diaspora abroad.There are at least three winning tickets in the US for the record $1.6bn (£1.1bn) lottery jackpot, officials have said.
