Padma Ratna Tuladhar (Nepali: पद्मरत्न तुलाधर) (1940–2018) was a Nepalese politician[1] and human rights activist. A resident of Kathmandu, he played an instrumental role in bringing the Nepali Maoists to mainstream politics from armed struggle.[2]
He was elected to the Rastriya Panchayat from Kathmandu in the 1986 election. Following the restoration of multi party democracy he was elected to the Pratinidhi Sabha from Kathmandu 4 in 1991. He served in the cabinet of Prime Minister Man Mohan Adhikari as Minister for Labour and Health.[3]
Tuladhar died at Kathmandu on 4 November 2018 due to a brain hemorrhage.[4] He is survived by his wife Nil Shova Tuladhar and four children.[5]
