China-nepal Connectivity

With aims to push rail connectivity to border areas, China is pursuing the Nepal-China Railway Project to fulfil its strategic interests.

China has opened a strategic highway in Tibet to the Nepal border which could be used for civilian and defence purposes, a move that Chinese experts say will enable Beijing to make forays into South Asia, according to a media report today.

Describing India's $1 billion aid to Mongolia as a "bribe", China's official media today said that there may be "endless trouble" in Sino-India ties if New Delhi viewed China's cargo service with Nepal as a threat to the sale of Indian goods.

Having already expanded its influence in Nepal with road and rail network through Tibet, China is now looking to stretch its railway link to Bihar to improve connectivity with India and South Asia, state-run Chinese media reported today.
