Acknowledgement: Analysis of Cross Border Impact study was conducted based on Mahakali River Basin communities and as well as people thoroughfare at Indo-Nepal Border. The study was conducted under OXFAM- TROSA Project implemented by the civil society organizations are RUWDUC (National Partner), RUDeS, SANKALPA and NEEDS (district base partners) has been focusing vulnerable river basin communities through increased access to and control over river water resources. TROSA (Transboundary Rivers of South Asia) is a five year program aimed at reducing poverty of river Analysis of Cross Border Issues and Impact Study ( Ashok Bikram Jairu) Page 4 of 84 ANALYSIS OF CROSS BORDER IMPCTS basin communities in three large river basins, including a significant upper tributary of the Ganga River-the Mahakali / Sharada River shared by Nepal and India; the lower reaches of the Brahmaputra /Padma /Jamuna and Teesta Rivers shared by India and Bangladesh; and the last free flowing trans-boundary river in Asia, the Salween River basin in Myanmar (shared with China and Thailand). While preparing the study for analysis of Cross Border Impacts, I discussed with many people who are directly or indirectly involved to the Mahakali River Basin and cross border issues. To listen of the voice of local people, I organized a small groups (4-5 persons) discussion with riparian communities for getting their situation and prospective on cross border issues. Similarly, I had observed the people who were crossing the border and their activities during they crossed border. Likewise, a Key Informer Interview (KII) was conducted with ten people expected that, they have had knowledge and learning about the cross border issues. Therefore, first of all, I would like to express my thanks to the group of Kanjabhoj and group of Bhujela as riparian community, who shared about their prospective on cross border issues. Similarity, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Key Informers Mr. Raj Kumar Sunar, Mr. Laxman Tiwari, Mr. Nar Bahadur Saud, Mr. Bishnu Awasthi, Ms. Bhagwati Thapa, Mr. Krishna Singh Deupa, Mr. Mohan Tailor, Mr. Damber Prasad Dhital, Mr. Bir Singh Dhami and Mr. Mohan Chand for their time and valuable information to the study propose. I would like to thank to Mr. Parash Giri, Mr. Dev Raj Badu, Mr. Gambhir Lal Urau and Ms. Nirmala Thakurathi for their support in collection of information and interviewing with Key Informers.

Background of Study: Analysis of Cross Border Issues and Impact Study ( Ashok Bikram Jairu) Page 6 of 84 ANALYSIS OF CROSS BORDER IMPCTS The Mahakali River is Indo Nepal Border River in various parts which is demarking as International Border line. Most of the cultures, religious aspects, festivals and rituals are being practiced and seen in both the parts of Mahakali River Basin of Indo Nepal as neighboring country. Most of the people of both sides have marital relations and are culturally associated by taking and giving their bride and groom. Most of the markets are interdependent with each other. Mostly Indo Nepal border based Nepalese are depending upon Indian hospitals for treatment, shopping, employments and Pilgrimage visits in various cities of India. Likewise, Indian people also visits, for worshipping Lord Pashupatinath and other religious places in Nepal. Both the countries are nurtured by the same mountains, rivers and are bound by ancient ties of religion, culture and kinship. A strong relationship between Nepal and India is seen mostly in religious, cultural parts, food habits, rituals and environment which bind them in one relationship of close neighboring country. From the many decades the Mahakali River Basin communities are using water the same river for the functions of various rituals and kin relationship which is a great and unique example of the strong relationship. Based on close the relation and changing context of world and bilateral agreement between Nepal and India for integrate development of Mahakali and Cross Border scenario, it is essential to know and learn for the further riparian communities’ better livelihoods and their rights. Transboundary Rivers of South Asia (TROSA) is a five-year (2017-2021) regional project funded by the Government of Sweden and managed by Oxfam Novib. The program aims to contribute to Analysis of Cross Border Issues and Impact Study ( Ashok Bikram Jairu) Page 7 of 84 ANALYSIS OF CROSS BORDER IMPCTS poverty reduction and marginalization among vulnerable river basin communities through increased access to and control over riverine water resources on which their livelihoods depend. Among the TROSA project Mahakali River is one of them which catchment is around 15,260 sq km. RUWDUC is a non-governmental organization and currently it is working for TROSA programme in Dadeldhura district and centrally as partner of OXFAM-TROSA project in Nepal. RUWDUC came to life with the belief that appropriate motivation and training to women and youth groups could turn them into important catalysts and facilitators in the development of the communities and the region as a whole. According to the RUWDUC under the TROSA project, an analysis of cross border impact study was planned and executed to conduct study through an independent consultant to listen and learning on cross-border issues and impacts across the Mahakali River Basin’s riparian communities’ prospective. The study is focused for understanding about the irrigation rights, proper mining of sand, stone and boulder, access to drinking water, early warning systems and conservation of Mahaseer Fish as a livelihood prospective of Mahakali River Basin’s riparian communities in Nepal. The study hopes to be supported for further planning of TROSA project focusing to the riparian communities’ rights and their livelihood options. 4. Executive Summary: Nepal-India border is unique in the world in the sense that people of both countries can cross it from any point, despite the existence of border check posts at several locations.

The food security situation in the flood affected districts of Eastern and Western Terai remains precarious, requiring close monitoring, while in the majority of other districts the food security situation is likely to improve in November-December due to harvesting of the paddy crop. Decreased maize and paddy production in some districts may indicate a deteriorating food insecurity situation from January onwards. this period.

  • Jay Friedman LOCATION: Nepal TIME PERIOD: 20 Mar – 1 April 1973
    TITLE: Trekking for Smallpox in Nepal AUTHOR: Jay Friedman LOCATION: Nepal TIME PERIOD: 20 Mar – 1 April 1973 ROLE: Outbreak investigation FOREWORD In Nepal, as is well-known, the mountainous terrain made for many logistical and administrative difficulties in smallpox eradication. Conversely, from 1972 onward Nepal Smallpox Eradication Program (SEP) staff were present in all 75 districts of the country, which helped ensure that surveillance and containment of the few outbreaks that occurred in some of the mountainous areas would be well done. One of the best examples of this was an outbreak in Jurali Village, Latamandu Panchayat, Doti District, Seti Zone in early 1973. (At the time Nepal was divided into four Regions, 14 Zones (“Anchal” in Nepali), 75 districts and, within each district, a number of "panchayats", which in turn are sub-divided into nine wards and a number of villages.) A total of 13 days were spent going to and returning from the outbreak area by Dr. Benu Bahadur Karki, several members of a surveillance team and me. The story is as follows: THE TALE The SEP office in Kathmandu was notified of the outbreak via a telegram from our district office in the town of Silgadi Doti. Because Doti District is in the remote western hills of Nepal and difficult to reach from Kathmandu, my boss, Dr. M. Sathianathan (known to one and all as Sathy), persuaded his boss, the WHO Representative Dr. Peter Kim, to charter an airplane to transport us there. On March 20, 1973, at 12.30 PM, Dr. Karki, the surveillance team and I left for Doti in a Pilatus Porter of Royal Nepal Airlines.
