Chinese Firm To Print Nepal Notes: Nepal’s central bank ‘Nepal Rastra Bank’ has given the contract to a Chinese company to print new Rs 100 notes with the revised political map of the country. Nepal’s Cabinet has approved changes in the design of Rs 100 note. In this, three strategically important areas Limpiyadhura, Lipulekh and Kalapani have been described as part of Nepal.
The new political map was approved by amending the Nepali Constitution on June 18, 2020, in which Lipulekh, Kalapani and Limpiyadhura are shown as part of the country. India has already termed the territorial claims made by Nepal as “artificial expansion” and “destabilizing”.
India has made it clear that Lipulekh, Kalapani and Limpiyadhura located on the border of western Nepal are its part. According to the English newspaper ‘Republic’, this contract has been awarded to ‘China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation’ after a competitive global tender process.

However, response in this regard could not be received from the spokesperson of Nepal Rastra Bank.
