India encroached Nepal's land, says CA delegations

Kathmandu, June 14 (ANI): Separate delegations of Nepal's Constituent Assembly and Parliament have concluded that Nepal was encroached by India in Dang district.

According to a Nepal News report, Amik Sherchan, chairman of the Committee for Protection of National Interest, was one of those making the claim.

Padma Lal Biswakarma, the chairman of the International Relations and Human Rights Committee, heading the parliamentary delegation, also made a similar charge at a press conference in Dang Saturday.
