Feb 10, 2022

Surkhet (Nepal), Feb 10 (ANI): Dal Rawal, a representative of Nepal's Opposition CPN-UML from Humla District has demanded the federal government to publish a report on the border issue with China at the earliest during a Parliament session. A leaked Nepal government report commissioned last September has accused China of encroaching into Western Nepal along their shared border. Rawal claimed that the government study about such issues falls under the right of every citizen to know about it and further requested the central government to publicize the report. The government's report was commissioned in September last year after reports emerged that China has been trespassing in the border district of Humla. The team studied border pillars, especially in the Limi valley, and initial findings confirmed that there were some serious border issues between Nepal and China.
