      The Challenges in India-Nepal Ties<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
      Challenge<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Territorial\/Border Disputes<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\nThe Treaty of Sugauli signed by the Kingdom of Nepal and British\u00a0India in 1816 located the Kali River as Nepal\u2019s western boundary with India.<\/p>\n

      However, the discrepancy in locating the source of the river led to boundary disputes between India and Nepal.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

      Internal Security<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\nThere is an open border between India and Nepal which leads to illegal migration and human trafficking<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Peace and friendship treaty<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\nIndia-Nepal Friendship Treaty, 1950 has been criticized by the Nepali political elite as an unequal one. For example, the treaty obliged Nepal to inform India and seek its consent for the purchases of military hardware from third countries<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      India\u2019s Dominance<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\nThere is a widespread perception in Nepal that India does not respect the country\u2019s sovereignty and that it often intervenes in Nepal\u2019s domestic affairs.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Nepal\u2019s growing proximity to China<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\nChina has become one of the most important trading partners of Nepal. It has\u00a0also\u00a0provided liberal aid for building infrastructure in Nepal\u00a0and\u00a0undertaken many infrastructure projects. For Example, China\u2019s freight train to Nepal<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Trade<\/b><\/strong><\/td>\nNepal\u2019s trade deficit with India has surged in recent years with continuously rising imports and sluggish exports. Indo-Nepal trade continues to remain massively in India\u2019s favor.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
