KATHMANDU: Parliamentary Committees have expressed concerns after India constructed a new link road by India to connect Mansarobar of Tibet, China, via Kalapani Lipulekh area which falls in Nepali territory.
The State Affairs and Good Governance Committee and International Relations Committee under the House of Representatives have convened their meetings to discuss the issue.
Both the committees have called a meeting at Singha Durbar at 8:30 am on Sunday.
Home Minister Ram Bahadur Thapa, Foreign Minister Pradeep Kumar Gyawali and other government officials have been summoned for the meeting.
Earlier issuing a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the construction of the road runs against the understanding reached between the two countries at the level of Prime Ministers that a solution to boundary issues would be sought through negotiation.
