Naravane visit a positive step to repair ties but has little to do with boundary dispute, experts say

Indian Army chief is arriving in Nepal next week amid frosty relations between Nepal and India and on the heels of controversy over the trip of a top Delhi spy to Kathmandu last week.

As Indian Army chief General MM Naravane is all set to arrive on a three-day official visit on November 4, all eyes are now on the outcome of his visit, mostly the status of the boundary dispute between Nepal and India, which has emerged an irritant in the bilateral relations since November last year, and how military, security and strategic ties between Nepal and India will move on.
