India’s new map response, Kathmandu Mayor placed ‘ Greater Nepal’ Map in his office
The Mayor of Kathmandu, in response to India’s new map, has placed a map of ‘Greater Nepal’ in a public display. The map depicts an expanded territory of Nepal that includes certain disputed areas claimed by both Nepal and India. The Mayor’s action is seen as a symbolic gesture asserting Nepal’s territorial claims.
It is a response to India’s recent inclusion of these disputed areas in its official map. This move has further escalated tensions between the two neighboring countries. The placement of the map aims to highlight Nepal’s stance on the territorial dispute and to assert its sovereignty. The action has drawn both support and criticism from various quarters, fueling discussions and debates regarding the border issue.
