Nepal is not part of India

There has always been a controversy between Nepal and India in case of territory. The controversy has been nicely addressed by a documentary called “Greater Nepal”. The documentary shows the land taken by India from Nepal. A recent controversy hit the fire when Indian news, an Indian Hindi news channel showed Nepal and Bhutan inside the Indian border in the logo of their program “Yeh Mera India” , which telecast at 6.30 pm Indian time. In response to that, Sagarmatha, a Nepali news channel broadcasted a program in the protest of such act done by the Indian channel.

Now, the Indian channel has accepted their mistake and has said that there have been certain misgivings and misconceptions with regard to one of its programs called ‘Yeh Mera India’. In the letter to the Nepalese Ambassador, the Indian news channel has clarified about their junior graphic designer committed the mistake by drawing a wrong line.

This is not just the first case; India has stated Nepal as its land as we can see plenty of such cases in the past. On each case, citizens of Nepal have protested back and said that Nepal has always been an independent country but still they love to make such mistakes. Now too we want to say Nepal has never been a part of India and will never be a part of India.
