The encroachment on the no man's land along the Nepal-India border in the 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 a half kilometers 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 sides 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 kilometers of border with India.
