Nepal PM Oli's upcoming India visit key to boosting bilateral trust: Experts
Nepal Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli's upcoming visit to India is expected to be "instrumental" in creating an atmosphere of trust between the two countries, foreign relations experts and diplomats said on Sunday. Speaking at an interaction programme on "Nepal-India relations in the context of upcoming visit of Prime Minister Oli to India," former diplomat and foreign affairs expert Dr Shambhu Simkhada noted that Nepal and India enjoy cordial relations and deep friendly ties. "As I have learnt that Prime Minister Oli is embarking on a visit to the southern neighbour, the visit should be instrumental in creating an atmosphere of trust between the two countries," he said. During Oli's visit, efforts should be made to resolve issues, if any, between the two nations through high-level political dialogue, Simkhada said. At the event, foreign relations expert Mohan Lohani said, "India is moving ahead in the areas of economic prosperity, development and technological advancement. Nepal should try to benefit from the progress made by our southern neighbour." Another foreign policy expert Nischal Nath Pandey advised PM Oli to use the land route during his visit, stressing that it would give him the opportunity to learn about the "huge progress" made by India in various fields, including road transport. During the tenure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has made remarkable progress in development and road connectivity, and Nepal should learn from the experiences gained by India, Pandey said. Prime Minister Oli is embarking on a two-day official visit to India in mid-September, according to Foreign Ministry officials. However, the date and the programmes of the visit are yet to be announced officially. Oli, the chairperson of the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) - popular as the CPN-UML - had assumed the office of prime minister for the fourth time last July. He had chosen to visit China for his maiden foreign visit, breaking the tradition of visiting India as the first destination after assuming the post of prime minister.

Nepal PM Oli confirms India visit, says timing depends on groundwork
Nepal Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli has said that he will be visiting India and that ground work is underway on both sides for the visit. He, however, did not specify any time. Oli's comment about his visit to India comes amid speculations by some sections of local media that he didn't receive any invitation from India for an official visit, indicating that his relations with India became sour. I will probably embark on a visit to India. My visit to India will take place after the two sides do necessary ground works, Oli said in an interview to a Nepalese Youtube channel Dishanirdesh TV late on Thursday. It was in July last year that Oli, the chairperson of the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) - popular as the CPN-UML - assumed the office of Prime Minister for the fourth time. He had chosen to visit China for his maiden foreign visit, breaking the tradition of visiting India as the first destination after assuming the post of prime minister. Oli also revealed that he had extended an invitation to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to visit Nepal. Prime Minister Modi will probably visit Nepal towards November, he said adding, I have already sent the invitation to him. My India visit will take place at an appropriate time, he added. Modi and Oli met on the sidelines of the 6th BIMSTEC Summit in Bangkok on April 4. Oli also dismissed rumours that India doesn't like him. India did nothing bad when I became the Prime Minister, he said. In a different context, Oli pointed out, We have very good relations with both India and China. India and China both are rising economic powers and it is good that our neighbours are moving in the path of development, he said, adding, Nepal may benefit from the spill over effect of their development. They (India and China) should focus attention on their development, but it is not good to be involved in cut-throat competition, Oli advised. There should be healthy competition between them. They should choose the path of cordial relations, but not a path that bears tension. Answering a question how it will affect Nepal if tension prevails between its northern and southern neighbours, Oli said, Nepal will also benefit if there are good relations between India and China. We can benefit from cooperation and collaboration with them and also we may benefit from their big market.

China boosts ex-Nepal president Bhandari as she eyes political comeback
Chinese President Xi Jinping shakes hands with then-Nepalese President Bidya Devi Bhandari as he wraps up his two-day visit to Nepal, in Kathmandu on Oct. 13, 2019. © Reuters DEEPAK ADHIKARI KATHMANDU -- When Nepal's former president Bidya Devi Bhandari boarded a plane to Beijing in late May, it wasn't just a diplomatic trip. The nine-day visit, cloaked in ceremonial photos and vague agendas, signaled something more strategic: China's bid to reinforce ties with a veteran leftist politician as she eyes a return to party politics. Bhandari, a former vice chair of the ruling Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist), or CPN-UML, was one of four keynote speakers at the Dialogue with Political Parties from Neighboring Countries in Beijing. Organized by the Chinese Communist Party's International Department (IDCPC), the high-profile forum drew 200 delegates from political parties, businesses and think tanks across 29 Asia-Pacific countries.
