KATHMANDU: Lumbini Civil Society has objected to the construction of the buildings by China on Nepal’s land.

The Society protested the Chinese intervention in Nepal.

The activists chanted slogans such as “Return Nepal’s land, stop Chinese expansionism and stop oppression on Muslims”.

The border dispute between Nepal and China has resurfaced after it was revealed that China constructed nine buildings on Nepali territory in Humla district.

The Nepali side claims that there was a border pillar (Pillar No. 11) of Nepal and China at the place where the structures were built. However, the border pillar is missing.

The region does not enjoy the presence of the state because of its remoteness from the district headquarters.
