Nepal's PM Koirala has no property, owns only two cell phones

Nepalese Prime Minister Sushil Koirala, known for his austere lifestyle, does not possess any property but owns two mobile phones, his key aide said today.
Officials, who are filling up the prime minister's property details form, are facing a problem as he has nothing to mention in it.
Koirala "doesn't own a house or land nor has he invested money in the share of any company. He doesn't own a car or a motorbike and he doesn't have even a bank account," his Chief Secretary Basanta Gautam told PTI.
The 75-year-old prime minister doesn't have gold or silver items nor does he possess any other assets in his name, he said.

Koirala only has two mobile phones, Gautam said.
"But we cannot mention mobile phones as his property, so we are thinking how to fill up the form. We have to submit the property details without mentioning any property. It will only contain his personal information," he said.

Before moving to the Prime Minister's quarters at Baluwatar last month, Koirala was staying at the house rented by the Nepali Congress at the outskirt of Kathmandu as the party's president.
Koirala, a bachelor, has continued his austere life even after assuming the office of the prime minister.
Koirala's simple lifestyle is contradictory to many other former Prime Ministers, even those belong to the revolutionary communist party like the UCPN-Maoist.
