India-Nepal peace and friendship treaty (1950): does it require revision / Nayak, Nihar   Journal Article
Nayak, Nihar Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract The Treaty of Peace and Friendship signed between India and Nepal in 1950 has been a subject of debate within Nepal. The issue has been regularly featured in left parties' election manifestos in Nepal and become an agenda item in bilateral talks. India has agreed to review, adjust and update the treaty while giving due recognition to the special features of the bilateral relationship. Nepal's reservations to the treaty are based on the argument that the treaty compromises Nepal's ability to pursue an independent defence and foreign policy. The article examines the relevance of the treaty and prospects of India-Nepal relations in the changing international scenario. It argues that Nepal has benefited much more than India from the treaty. However, considering changes in strategic equations in the region, India-Nepal bilateral relations must be remodelled into a strategic partnership that seeks to promote security, modernisation and prosperity.

India's relations with Nepal: China in race to influence / Tripathy, Amulya K; Kujur, Roshni   Journal Article
Tripathy, Amulya K Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract It can be safely concluded that external powers have more to do in Nepali domestic politics, than Nepalis themselves do. It is unlikely that Nepal would have a smooth sail in the near future. With the intensifying contentions, both overt and covert, between and among China, the US and India, Nepal's politics can hardly be expected to have a democratic regime in the years to come. The things will become stable once the present cat-and-dog contention in the Himalayan Asia reaches saturation and a conclusive end. Timeframe and modus operandi for that cannot be predicted, for various variables could differ the state of affairs. It is US and China's interest to control the region.
