'Smart' border’ between Nepal and India proposed to limit crossings

Kathmandu, Aug 14 (UNI) The Eminent Persons’ Group on Nepal-India relations has recommended establishing a “smart border” allowing cross-border movements only through designated points to curb criminal activities and maintain records of people crossing on either side of the border.
At present, people who cross either side of the Nepal-India border do not have to produce any kind of identity cards and there are no prohibited entry or exit points.
The Kathmandu Post in a report said a panel of experts from both countries has recommended making electronic national identity cards mandatory as well as limiting movement to designated border points only.
