NEW NEPAL NOTE'S MAP RILES INDIA

 

Kathmandu: Nepal on Friday announced the printing of a new Rs 100 currency note with a map that shows the controversial territories of Lipulekh, Limpiyadhura and Kalapani, already termed as artificial enlargement and untenable by India.

On June 18, 2020, Nepal completed the process to update the country's political map by incorporating three strategically important areas Lipulekh, Kalapani and Limpiyadhura areas by amending its Constitution, something that India reacted sharply, calling it a "unilateral act" and terming as untenable the artificial enlargement of the territorial claims by Nepal.

Nepal has stirred diplomatic tensions with India once again by announcing the introduction of a new Rs 100 currency note featuring a controversial map. The map includes disputed territories of Lipulekh, Limpiyadhura, and Kalapani, which India staunchly contests as its own.

India swiftly responded to Nepal's decision, with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar expressing India's clear stance. He emphasized that unilateral actions by Nepal will not alter the existing realities on the ground or affect the ongoing boundary discussions between the two nations.
