Nepal Border Dispute Issue India – Nepal Border Dispute issue Historically, India has not had as close relationship with any other country as it has been with Nepal. Indians and Nepalis not only cross each other’s borders but also live in each other’s country without a visa. But for some time these relationship have started to deteriorate. Recently, PM of Nepal alleged India, for the spread of Coronavirus in Nepal, he said that India is responsible for the spread of Coronavirus in Nepal. After that Border dispute started within both the countries. Why is it starts? Who is right India or Nepal? Let’s see in this article. Border Dispute The controversy starts when Nepal released its country’s new map and included an area in its map that previous maps not included. That area is in India’s control. The area is – North-West tip of Nepal, which is the eastern most tip of Uttarakhand. Area of Susta (west champaran district of Bihar) What is in this area? This is around 300 sq. km. an area whose Northernmost village -Limpiyadhura, Southeastern part – Lipulekh, Southwest – Gunji, south of Gunji – Kalapani. So, this area is divided on the basis of these three area – Limpiadhura, Lipulekh, & Kalapani. Another area which Nepal is claiming is Susta region of bihar. Nepal claims that this area rightfully belongs to Nepal & India claims that it is part of India. Kalapani Region – Kalapani is a valley that is administered by India as a part of the Pithoragarh district of the Uttarakhand. It is situated on the Kailash Mansarovar Route. Kalapani has advantageously located at a height of over 20,000 ft. and serves as an observation. The kali river in the Kala Pani region demarcates the border between India & Nepal The Kalapani derives its name from River Kali. Nepal claims the region is based on the river as it became a marker of the boundary of the kingdom of Nepal following the Treaty of Sugauli signed between the Gurkha rule Kathmandu & east India company after Gurkha/Anglo Nepal war (1814-16). Susta Region – it is in west champaran district, Bihar the change of course by Gandhak River is the main reason for disputes in the Susta area. Located on the bank of gandhak river. called Narayani river. Joins Ganga near Patna, Bihar. When did this begin ? This starts in November 2019 when India announced its new map after the Revocation of the Article 370. Newly formed Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Laddakh, this map shows Kalapani in the Indian region, For this Nepal Government opposes India. The second event, On 8 May 2020, when Indian defense minister inaugurated motorable link road, a road of about 80 km which runs along the Indo-Nepal Border & passes through this disputed area to reach the Lipulekh (that Nepal claim it own territory) The purpose of this road was to stated that this will help people going to Kailash Mansarovar. Because, above this disputed area, Tibet is Located, which is the territory of China. Before this road, people have to travel through Sikkim, which is a 5-day trek. After the construction of this road, the vehicles will reach the border of China & after that only 2- day of the trek. After this inauguration, the government of Nepal was very angry and said that the Lipulekh comes in Nepal. They also believe that if India wanted to make a road, it should have talked about it. India’s Ministry of External Affairs’ response to this is that this area is completely within territory of India that’s why we didn’t talk about it. The condition started worsening when Nepal started protesting against it. On May 2020 – Army chief said, there’s China hand in this protest. Nepal & people became enraged after that Nepal released their map, on which this dispute started. Nepal has released a new political map that claims Kalapani, Limpiyadhura & Lipulekh of Uttarakhand as apart of Nepal’s territory. The area of Susta (west Champaran dist, Bihar) can also be noted in the new map. India has urged the Government of Nepal to refrain from such unjustified cartographic assertion & respect India’s sovereignty & territory integrity. India has also asked Nepal to return to dialogue. Why is Lipulekh Pass Important ? >The origin juts into the Himalayas & is connected to the other side of the mountain range through the Lipulekh pass, which has been used for centuries Hindus & Buddhist pilgrims & tourists on their way to Kailash Mansarovar. >The nearby markets have been used by various mountain communities. >The Himalayas have several passes that connect the Gangetic region with Tibetan plateau but Lipulekh it strategically located as it is nearest to the Heart of Indian state or the National Capital region and can be a particular concern in case of an armed conflict with china Nepal’s Claim – India’s Claim – Efforts to Solve Dispute In 1980, Both sides set up the joint Technical level boundary working group to portray the boundary. the group demarcated everything except Kalapani and Susta region. Officially, Nepal brought the issue of Kalapani before India in 1998, Both sides agreed to demarcate the outstanding areas (including Kalapani) by 2022 at the prime ministerial level talk held in 2000. But not happened yet. Issues Involved: Nepal’s deliberate efforts to make Lipulekh Pass a disputed tri-junction (between India-china & Nepal) in which Nepal has an equal share. India perceives Nepal to be tilting towards china under the leadership of Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and his Nepal communist party. Despite the open border between both countries & the people to people contact, the levels of dispute in Nepal about India have only increased. Way Forward: The importance of ties with Nepal often romanticized as one of “Roti-Beti” (Food & Marriage), India must not delay dealing with the matter, which it already has faceoff with China in Laddakh & Sikkim. A stable & friendly relationship with Nepal is a necessary condition that India cannot ignore because terrorists often use Nepal to enter India.

    Title Daily Vocab Capsule st Title 1 June 2020 For a Reset in India-Nepal Relations The urgent need today is to pause the rhetoric on territorial nationalism and lay the groundwork for a quiet dialogue. Once again, relations between India and Nepal have taken a turn for the worse. The immediate provocation is the long-standing territorial issue surrounding Kalapani, a patch of land near the India-Nepal border, close to the Lipulekh Pass on the India-China border, which is one of the approved points for border trade and the route for the Kailash-Mansarovar yatra in Tibet. However, the underlying reasons are far more complex. Yet, Nepali Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli’s exploitation of the matter, by raising the banner of Nepali nationalism and painting India as a hegemon, is part of a frequent pattern that indicates that relations between the two countries need a fundamental reset. Kalapani and the maps India inherited the boundary with Nepal, established between Nepal and the East India Company in the Treaty of Sugauli in 1816. Kali river constituted the boundary, and the territory to its east was Nepal. The dispute relates to the origin of Kali. Near Garbyang village in Dharchula Tehsil of the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand, there is a confluence of different streams coming from north-east from Kalapani and north-west from Limpiyadhura. The early British survey maps identified the north-west stream, Kuti Yangti, from Limpiyadhura as the origin, but after 1857 changed the alignment to Lipu Gad, and in 1879 to Pankha Gad, the north-east streams, thus defining the origin as just below Kalapani.

    Journal of International Affairs Vol. 3, 1-41, 2020 Doi: https://doi.org/10.3126/joia.v3i1.29077 Department of International Relations and Diplomacy Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal North-Western Boundary of Nepal Dwarika Dhungel Jagat Bhusal Narendra Khanal Abstract Following the publication of new political maps by India on 2nd and 8th November 2019, the issues related to the source of Mahakali River and Indian occupation of the Nepali territory east of the river, have, once again, come to the surface. And, the Nepali civil society has come out strongly against the newly published political maps of India, prepared a new map of Nepal, showing the whole of the territory east of Mahakali River (about 400 sq. km) as Nepalese land on the basis of Treaty of Sugauli signed in 1816 by East India Company of Great Britain and Raja of Nepal. An analysis of the maps, so far available, shows that changes have been made in the names of the river and places, and there is cartographic aggression and manipulation by India in relation to Mahakali River and its boundary with Nepal’s northwest. It has also been found that Nepal has published a map in the past showing its international boundary without any basis of the treaties and other historical documents. Analysis clearly shows that the river originating from Limpiyadhura is the Mahakali (called Kalee/Kali River) as per Article 5 of the Sugauli treaty and it forms the international boundary between the two countries.

    The (Im)possibility of Revolution and State Formation in Nepal Matjaz Pinter, Ph.D. Candidate at Maynooth University, Ireland Abstract The paper looks at Nepal’s revolution and state formation process in post-agrarian capitalism by examining anti-systemic and systemic elements of class struggle. The political articulation of the peasant question within the context of late 20th century Nepal has been widely popularized by the country’s Maoist movement. The movement has since then undergone a great political and cultural transformation from an anti-systemic party-movement into a systemic one. After more than a decade of post-revolutionary politics, we are yet to examine the historical role of the Nepalese peasantry in the light of the anti-systemic and systemic politics in Nepal, and the restructuring of capital on the South Asian periphery. The aim of the paper is to explain the legacy of the revolution in its core contradiction: today the agricultural production is not central to the reproduction of capital, but it is still an important factor in the reproduction of power relations. In Nepal this relation between revolution and state formation is the central antagonism of class struggle that can be observed through two phases consisting of anti-systemic and systemic formations. Introduction Nepal’s state formation process goes back to, what is often called, the unification of several Himalayan kingdoms that happened in the eighteenth and at the turn of the nineteenth century. The rule of the then Kingdom of Gorkha under Prithvi Narayan Shah and later the Shah dynasty, was bound to get into territorial disputes with the powerful colonizers of South Asia.

  • British Diplomatic Views on Nepal and the Final Stage of the Ch'ing Empire
    British Diplomatic Views on Nepal and the Final Stage of the Ch’ing Empire (1910–1911)1 Matteo Miele At the edge of the town of Cassino, the central Italian city that was the scene, be- tween January and May 1944, of one of the most important and difficult battles of the Second World War, two sixteen-year old soldiers lie. They are the youngest sol- diers in that Commonwealth cemetery. Their names are Kalu Sing Limbu and Mane Rai. Both were ethnic Nepalese, riflemen of the Gurkha battalion from the district of Darjeeling.2 Today Darjeeling is an Indian city in the state of West Bengal. Follow- ing the Anglo-Nepalese War of 1814–1816 the Nepalese ceded the Hill of Darjeeling to the British East India Company and then, in 1817, the latter relinquished it to Sik- kim, which returned the area to the British in 1835 in exchange for an annual pay- ment.3 The two boys are a symbol of what the Nepalese people represented for the British Empire. The British had in fact begun to recruit (surrendered) Nepalese sol- diers within their army already in 1815, following the Battle of Malaun.4 In subse- quent years, the soldiers were known for their ability and also for the great loyalty to the British, even during the Sepoy Rebellion of the 1850s of the nineteenth centu- ry. 5 The soldiers were from areas under British control as well as from Nepal.6 There- fore maintaining excellent relations between British India and Kathmandu meant ensuring the alliance of the largest and most powerful buffer-state of the Himalayas between India and Tibet, but also to secure a large reserve of soldiers on military fronts far away from southern Asia.

  • The Need of Change in Contemporary Nepalese Foreign Policy
    A Peer-Reviewed Article The need of Change in Contemporary Nepalese Foreign Policy Ram Kumar Dahal Abstract The year 2017 has witnessed important changes in Nepal including the holding of Central, Provincial and Local elections in course of implementing the federal constitution-the constitution of Nepal, 2015. Besides these national changes, important changes have occurred in regional and global politics. In the changed national, regional and global context, Nepal has to readjust, reorient and reformulate its foreign policy to serve the growing needs and aspirations of its people. Both the internal and external issues and challenges have to be timely and properly addressed by means of an appropriate contemporary Nepalese foreign policy. The nonaligned foreign policy formulated during the cold war period has to develop new mechanisms and capabilities to cope with the changing time and situation, to fulfill the growing aspirations and expectations of the Nepalese people in the present context and to maintain its independent regional and global image and personality. In this context, Nepal has to realize the significance of its specific, unique and peculiar characteristics and convert/transform them as elements of national power and contribute towards strengthening/consolidating its foreign policy.

  • India-Nepal - Kalapani Territorial Issue
    India-Nepal - Kalapani Territorial Issue Why in news? There is renewed tension between India and Nepal over the Kalapani territorial issue. What is the Kalapani territorial issue? Kalapani lies on the easternmost corner of Uttarakhand’s Pithoragarh district, between Nepal and India. Both India and Nepal lay claim to Kalapani. The dispute was revived in November 2019 when India published a revised political map showing the newly created UTs of J&K and Ladakh. The map showed Kalapani as part of Pithoragarh district. Nepal protested immediately and drew attention to the issue. Very recently, India inaugurated theDarchula-Lipulekh pass link road, cutting across the disputed Kalapani area. The road is used by Indian pilgrims to Kailash Mansarovar. Nepal hit back by summoning the Indian Ambassador to Nepal, Vinay Mohan Kwatra, to convey a formal protest. What are Nepal's claims based on? The Kalapani region derives its name from the river Kali. Nepal’s claims to the region are based on this river. The River became the marker of the boundary of the kingdom of Nepal following the Treaty of Sugauli. This was signed between the Gurkha rulers of Kathmandu and the East India Company after the Gurkha War/Anglo-Nepal War (1814-16). According to the treaty, Nepal lost the regions of Kumaon-Garhwal in the west and Sikkim in the east. The King of Nepal gave up his claims over the region west of the river Kali which originates in the High Himalayas and flows into the great plains of the Indian subcontinent. According to the treaty, the British rulers recognised Nepal’s right to the region that fell to the east of the river Kali.

  • International Boundary Survey and Demarcation of South- Eastern Portion of Nepal with India
    Case Study : International Boundary Survey and Demarcation of South- eastern portion of Nepal with India Buddhi Narayan Shrestha* Kathmandu, Nepal Key words: Masonry boundary pillar, permanent pillar, main boundary pillar, reference pillar, treaty, historical maps, Mechi River, tri-junction, status, demarcation, disputes, white paper. ABSTRACT Nepal-India boundary has been delimitated by the Treaty of Sugauli-1816 and subsequent treaties. According to the treaty, the River Mechi delineates the south-eastern borderline of Nepal with India. During Nepal-British India demarcation, Masonry Boundary Pillars were erected on the ground and maps were prepared on the basis of field survey. The first boundary map was published in January 1818 depicting the south-eastern portion of Nepal, consisting of river segment. British Surveyors had established masonry (Jumbo) pillars with a distance of 5 to 7 Miles. The actual borderline was somehow jig-jag between the pillars. So there were disputes on the lands. To make the boundary settled, Nepal and India formed 'Joint Boundary Committee' in 1981. Subsidiary pillars were established between two masonry pillars. During field work in 1996, Masonry Permanent Pillar (PP-1), along River Mechi, was not given status as the Main Pillar. During my ground inspection and field study, masonry pillar number PP-1, having 2 meter high and 3 meter round diameter with a ditch, is situated on just eastern bank of River Mechi. Other maps, as available were verified on the ground. Temporary bridge on the river Mechi is being constructed by Nepal. When I study the British map of 1818, symbol of masonry pillars have been drawn on the map mentioning 'Pillar of Masonry along the Boundary connecting the ditch at the angles.' Persian Map of 1874 depicts that the river Mechi is meandering nearly 475 to 1250 meters in five loops towards Nepal from the boundary pillars, In this case, if we take the PPs as main boundary pillars, it computes that 2.54 sq km area of Nepal has been encroached.
