Kathmandu, April 27: The encroachment on the no-man’s land along the Nepal-India border in Kanchanpur district is being removed. In this connection, the illegal structures constructed on the no-man’s land on the border under Dodhara Chandani Municipality are being dismantled and removed, said Kishor Limbu, the Municipality’s Mayor.
According to him, the removal of encroachment on the border has been started from Baduwal Tol of Dodhara Chandani-3. “The work of removing the encroachments on the no-man’s land on the border has been started and we have removed the illegal structures on one and half kilometres stretch on the first day. It will be continued,” he elaborated.
The work of vacating the no-man’s land of illegal occupation is being carried out at the joint initiation of the Armed Police Force, Nepal Police, the Indian Seema Suraksha Bal (SSB) and the people-elected representatives, among other stakeholders.
People have cultivated crops and constructed illegal structures on the no-man’s land along the Nepal-India international border in Dodhara Chandani. As a result, disputes broke out among the people on both side of the border one side accusing the other of encroaching upon their land. The Municipality hopes this problem would be solved with the clearing of the no-man’s land.Kanchanpur shares 129.5 kilometres border with India.
