Kathmandu, March 23
Greater Nepal Nationalist Campaign on Wednesday gifted to Prince Harry, on a visit to Nepal, a map of Greater Nepal, which predates the Treaty of Sugauli that England forced Nepal to sign. The campaign activists handed over the map to the fifth in line to the British throne at the British Embassy in Lainchaur, Kathmandu.
They handed over the map along with a 10-point memorandum to Alison MC Avon, deputy head of mission at the embassy. When the British official inquired about the map, front President Fanindra Nepal said England left India without returning 60,000 sq km of Nepali territory in India. So, it is the responsbility of England to return the land to Nepal, front President Nepal explained.
Only high level British government authorities can make a decision on the issues mentioned in the memorandum, Alison said, pledging to make the gift available to Prince Harry today itself.
