Nepal officially releases new controversial map, shows Indian territories of Lipulekh, Kalapani, Limpiyadhura as its own

New Delhi: The authorities of Nepal on Wednesday formally issued a brand new controversial map of the nation which exhibits Indian territories of Lipulekh, Kalapani, Limpiyadhura as its personal. The map was unveiled by the Ministry of Land Management, Cooperatives & Poverty Alleviation.

Earlier this month Nepal’s President Bidhya Devi, whereas addressing the joint session of the Parliament, had mentioned new maps of the nation shall be printed that may present all areas it considers its personal. 

Bhandari mentioned, “Limpiyadhura, Lipulekh and Kalapani region are Nepal’s territory and concrete diplomatic efforts will be taken towards reclaiming these territories. An official map of Nepal will be published accordingly incorporating all the territories of Nepal.”

Elaborating Nepali govt’s method, Bhandari defined that the “government of Nepal is committed to safeguarding the international borders of Nepal” and “outstanding border disputes with India will be resolved through diplomatic medium relying on available historical treaties, maps, facts and evidence”

Kathmandu raised the refrain over the difficulty after Defence Minister Rajnath Singh inaugurated a brand new highway from Dharchula to Lipulekh that may scale back the time taken for Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage. 

After this improvement, Indian envoy to Nepal Vinay Mohan Kwatra was referred to as by Nepal’s Foreign Minister Pradeep Kumar Gyawali and its concern was raised over the matter.

India has clarified to Nepal on Lipulekh that the “recently inaugurated road section in Pithoragarh district in the State of Uttarakhand lies completely within the territory of India.”

New Delhi sees an elevated Chinese position in Nepal as a motive for present feedback by Kathmandu. Indian Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane had on Friday hinted at overseas involvement with Nepal raking up the Lipulekh challenge.

Army Chief, talking at a assume tank IDSA’s on-line meet, mentioned, “I do not know exactly what they are exactly agitating about. Never been a problem in the past, reasons to believe they might have raised these problems, issues at the behest of someone else and there is very much a possibility.”

While names haven’t been taken, China’s elevated involvement within the nation is one thing that’s well-known. 

The ongoing dispute will not be new and dates again to 1816 when below the Treaty of Sugauli, King of Nepal misplaced elements of its territory to British together with Kalapani and Lipulekh.
