Durga Prasai (Nepali: दुर्गा प्रसाई) Is a Nepalese right wing political activist, medical entrepreneur and loan defaulter. He was charged for loan default worth NPR 5.57 billion lend by 9 different commercial banks of nepal to establish the medical college B&C Hospital in Jhapa.[1][2]
According to Nepal Rastra Bank sources, Prasai owes NPR 760 million from Nabil Bank, NPR 1.2 billion from Prabhu Bank, NPR 1 billion from Kumari Bank (then NCC Bank), NPR 700 million from Rastriya Banijya Bank, 650 million from Nepal Investment Mega Bank (then Mega Bank), NPR 153 million from Lumbini Development Bank, NPR 110 million from Goodwill Finance and NPR 1 billion from Global IME Bank (then Janata Bank).[3]
He leads frequent social and political campaigns in all state provinces against the Nepal's existing federal democratic government and calls for its overthrow in favor of an amendment that would reinstate the constitutional monarchy.[4]
He is currently serving as an Executive Director of B&C Hospital and a private investor of Taksha Shila education foundation, both located in Jhapa.[5][6] In March 2024, Supreme Court of Nepal directed the Medical Education Commission and Kathmandu University with an issue order to mandates granting the medical affiliation permission to the Prasai B&C Hospital to run the MBBS classes after his writ petition to the court.[7][8][9][10]
