New Delhi,India-Nepal border is an open border allowing
free movement for citizens of both the countries. Although from time to time
the open border is misused by unscrupulous elements for smuggling contraband
items, fake currency and other criminal activities, there has been no
substantial increase thereof.
Both sides cooperate closely to counter such activities. A comprehensive
institutional framework has been established, with regular meetings at the
levels of Home Secretaries, border guarding forces i.e. SSB of India and APF of
Nepal and District Administration levels i.e. DMs in India and CDOs in Nepal
border districts to strengthen cross-border cooperation to curb such
activities. The Government of Nepal has assured that it will not allow its
territory to be used for any activity against India. This Information was given by answer the Minister of state in the Ministry of
External Affairs Gen. Retd. V. K. Singh in Lok Sabha today.
