Nepal shares a border with five Indian states of Sikkim, West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. The age-old civilizational and cultural ties that exist between India and Nepal are exemplified by the strong people-to-people link between the two countries. Nepal is a priority partner of India under its 'Neighbourhood First' Policy, as per a statement by the MEA.
These bonds of friendship are also strengthened by regular exchanges at a high level between India and Nepal. Since May 2014, there have been 17 exchanges at the level of Head of State/ Head of Government, as per MEA.
Frequent high-level visits and exchanges between both the nations have added momentum to the bilateral partnerships, and helped the leadership to review at regular intervals the entire gamut of the relation, the MEA statement added. (ANI)
