- Bishnu Pratap Shah, a well known personality in the service sector of Nepal represented in his lifetime the cause of good governance in his own way. He served under different capacities and rose to the higher positions through his dedication to work, talent and capability. Shah, who, had been appointed to important positions of Zonal Commissioner and Government Secretary during the party-less Panchayat era, also succeeded in getting high position of the Chief Election Commissioner after the restoration of democracy in 1990, because of his personal integrity and dedication to work. He had won the heart of the Nepalese readers through his thought provoking write-ups published in Kantipur daily from time to time. In one such article he had underlined the need to hold Constituent Assembly elections, long before the peace process was initiated as he had already smelt the root cause of the Maoist insurgency. In fact, he was not only an efficient administrator and honest civil servant, but also a person with diverse personality and high-vision. Shah steered the Election Commission so perfectly that it facilitated Nepal to hold Parliamentary as well as local level elections on the basis of the principle of adult-franchise to the satisfaction of all the political parties and the mission of the Peoples Movement. Born in Maidi VDC Ward No. 2, Dhading district on 29 August 1937 to father Captain Lal Jung Shah and mother Subhadra Kumari. Shah was married to Ishwori Shah in 1971 B.S. and has birthed son Bimal Pratap Shah and daughter Binita Shah (Khadka)and grandchildren Sivashish Pratap Shah and Biraj Khadka. Shah died on 29 April 2005. (en)
