 The historical record shows that, some time around 1865, the British shifted the border near Kalapani to the "watershed" of the Kalapani river instead of the river itself, thereby claiming the area now called the Kalapani territory.This is consistent with the British position that the Kali River begins only from the Kalapani springs, which meant that the agreement of Sugauli did not apply to the region above the springs.After the Indian prime minister's visit to China in 2015, India and China agreed to open a trading post in Lipulekh, raising objections from Nepal.
