| China Seals Border, Gorkha Folks Hit |
| |
| THT Online |
Gorkha, July 22
The
Chinese government's decision to seal its border with Nepal earlier
this year has affected thousands of families in Chhekapar and Samagaun
VDCs of Gorkha district who have been traditionally using the routes of
Bhuila and Ghyala passes located on Nepal-China border to reach the
markets of Jonga and Kongdang in District Kirong of the Tibet
Autonomous region of China to carry out trans-border business and trade.
These
Nepalis have been fulfilling their daily needs such as clothes,
foodgrains, oil and salt through this traditional trans border business
and trade. However in February this year the Chinese government sealed
its border by deploying army and police personnel in that area and
restricted the entry of Nepalese nationals.
According to the locals
owing to decision they have been facing severe shortage of various
goods thereby affecting their normal life. Though Nepal's government
has taken up the issue with Beijing for allowing the Nepalese nationals
residing along the Nepal-China border to move freely, nothing has been
done fo far, the locals claimed.
At the same time the Chinese
government has been unusually harsh in pressurising the Nepalese to
crush any perceived signs of Tibetan resistance in Nepal. This is
despite the fact that the Nepal Baudha Mahasangha has appealed to the
government of Nepal to allow the Buddhists in Nepal to freely practice
their religion and not link them unnecessarily with the ongoing
protests by the Tibetan community.
Meanwhile, the Nepalese Supreme
Court directed (July 7) the government to free three detained Tibetan
protesters, viz Tashi Dolma, Nawang Sangmo and Kalsan Chung who had
been arrested earlier on charges of indulging in anti-China activities.
Reacting to the development, the Chinese Ambassador to Nepal has lodged
a strongly-worded protest with the Nepalese Foreign Secretary.
