Description
Byline: Dr. Bishnu Pathak The burgeoning Chinese, Indian and Pakistani influence raises alarm in transitional Nepal which has an open border with both China and India. India encircles it from three sides east, west and south with a 1,751 km long largely porous border, unmarked and unguarded, whereas China lies to the north with 1,414 km of inaccessible border. It is not possible to cross this border owing to elevation of snowy mountains and tight security on the Chinese side. The recent Nepal-India cross border opening has been an ideal conduit for alleged spies. Nepal has also been a favorable terrain for smuggling illegal goods, arms and ammunition, counterfeit currency notes, Free Tibet literature, etc. Nepal, India and China have been close neighbors for a long time indeed.
