India vs Nepal Border Dispute | Explained by Dhruv Rathee

Few days ago, Nepal published a new political map of their country that includes a small stretch of land controlled by India. It is approximately 300 square kilometers of land located between Limpiyadhura, Lipulekh and Kalapani which Nepal believes to be a part of its own country. In this video, I take you through the history of this land, how borders were divided between India and Nepal through the Sugauli Treaty and how this dispute has arisen. I also explain role of China's influence in this geopolitics.

Special thanks to Kanak Mani Dixit & Tika P Dhakal for their research on this issue. They have written a detailed piece in Scroll Website, which I have used as the primary source in this video. Here's the link to their full article, highly recommend to read this for more information -

Nice analysis. The only thing I would like to correct is that it was not after 1860 that we claimed the territory. But we have records till 1960 when Nepal collected Taxes and conducted census in those area. Rest of it is on point.

सयौं थुँगा फूलका हामी, एउटै माला नेपाली
सार्वभौम भई फैलिएका, मेची-माहाकाली।

सयौं थुँगा फूलका हामी, एउटै माला नेपाली
सार्वभौम भई फैलिएका, मेची-माहाकाली।

प्रकृतिका कोटी-कोटी सम्पदाको आंचल
वीरहरूका रगतले, स्वतन्त्र र अटल।

ज्ञानभूमि, शान्तिभूमि तराई, पहाड, हिमाल
अखण्ड यो प्यारो हाम्रो मातृभूमि नेपाल।

बहुल जाति, भाषा, धर्म, संस्कृति छन् विशाल
अग्रगामी राष्ट्र हाम्रो, जय जय नेपाल
