India rejects ‘third-party involvement’ in boundary talks with Nepal

Immediate past Nepali ambassador to India says New Delhi has been denying neighbours’ proposals for third-party mediation.

The Nepal-India boundary dispute has taken a new twist after Prime Minister Balendra Shah, in his address to the House of Representatives, said that England (the United Kingdom) should also take an interest in the issue, given its historical link to the 1816 Sugauli Treaty.
