Bharat Mohan Adhikari (Nepali: भरतमोहन अधिकारी) (4 May 1936 – 2 March 2019) was a Nepali politician and freedom fighter. He became the Finance Minister of Nepal in the 1994-95 government of Prime Minister Man Mohan Adhikari[1] He was the first communist Finance Minister who championed "आफ्नो गाउं आफै बनाउ" (Make your own village). He was also the deputy prime minister of Nepal in the Deuba cabinet (2004-05) which was dissolved by King Gyanendra.
In 2012, he was at the Medanta Medicity Hospital in New Delhi for suspected valvular heart disease, but was not treated for the same.[2][3]
Although a central figure of the CPN-UML, he was considered to have held more moderate views. [citation needed]
Adhikari died on 2 March 2019 from multiple organ failure stemming from a severe case of COPD.[4]
