UNNF releases a map of Greater Nepal
‹‹ Back
Unified Nepal National Front (UNNF) has come up with a map of Nepal, in which the geography of the country spreads up to the Ganga River of India.
The map depicts the geography of Nepal before the Sugauli Treaty.
It also said that the actual boundary of the country should be what it is sketched in the map.
On March 4, 1816, Nepal was forced to sign this lopsided treaty with the then British India. Before this tragic agreement, Nepal was stretched from Tista in the east to the Satlaj river in the west, thus measuring 20,4917 square kilometer.
As the Sugauli Treaty is nullified by the clause 8 of the 1959 Nepal-India Treaty, Nepal should get back its lands being occupied by India in a legitimate way, according to the UNNF.
The map of Greater Map is based on the agreement of May, 15, 1815, the Sugauli Treaty, and the pact regarding the return of partial portions of Terai reached on December 11, 1816.
It is not be illogical to say that Nepal will continue to remain semi-colonized if the political leadership fails to take any initiations to bring back the territories being occupied by India on the pretext of the Sugauli Treaty.
This must be treated as something fundamentally related to the Nepal\'s sovereignty, the front believes.
