Nepal protests over boundary in new map

The boundary delineation exercise with Nepal is ongoing under the existing mechanism.

New Delhi: A day after Nepal protested against the new map of India that depicted Kalapani within Indian boundaries, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said that the map in no manner revised the boundary with Nepal and India remains committed to resolve any such outstanding issues through dialogue. India has also asked Nepal to guard against vested interests trying to create differences between the two countries.

“Our map accurately depicts the sovereign territory of India. The new map has in no manner revised our boundary with Nepal.

The boundary delineation exercise with Nepal is ongoing under the existing mechanism. We reiterate our commitment to find a solution through dialogue in the spirit of our close and friendly bilateral relations. At the same time, both countries should guard against vested interests trying to create differences between our two countries,” MEA spokesperson Mr Raveesh Kumar said on Thursday.
