A press statement issued by Nepal at the end of the proceedings said that the two countries agreed to “repair border pillars”, as well as to increase the capacity of Nepal’s Armed Police Force and expand India’s Borders Security Forces to control criminal activities along the open border. The two sides also agreed to form a technical team to investigate the missing pillars on both sides of the no man’s land. In addition, India offered technical and material assistance to strengthen the immigration setup along the border should Nepal request such assistance. Similar offer was made to upgrade Nepal’s only international airport in Kathmandu to strengthen its security, and an offer to set up a Police Academy is waiting for the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding.
