I am Suresh Darpan Pokharel, a social activist based in Dallas, Texas, originally from Nepal. I am raising funds for the late Prem Prasad Acharya's family. All the funds will be sent to Mrs. Nanuka Adhikari, his wife for the education of their kids. Mr. Acharya tried to commit suicide by setting himself on fire in front of the Federal Parliament building, in Kathmandu on Tuesday afternoon and has died. Acharya died on Wednesday morning while undergoing treatment at the hospital in Kirtipur. 37-year-old Acharya, a resident of Suryodaya Municipality of Ilam district in Nepal, attempted self-immolation by sprinkling petrol on his body in front of Parliament House on Tuesday.

Before committing suicide, he wrote on his Facebook page, "Despite trying all the means to survive, nothing happened, because all hope is dead, I promised to die. I'm sorry.

If there is any kind-hearted person please help my wife to pay my debt. She also won't have time to follow my path, our 2 daughters will be orphans."
