[edit] Accuracy of the map?
The Sugauli treaty is well known. However, I do not think that the borders of Nepal had extended right up to the Ganga , as is claimed in this article. Can someone provide a proper reference and state as to wich period in hisory did this happen? --Deepak D'Souza (talk • contribs) 07:00, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
I have removed the image of "Greater Nepal" as it innacurately displays parts of India which were never under Nepalese domininion as a part of Greater Nepal. If someone corrects the image and only shows the areas ceded under the Sugauli treaty, please feel free to add it back. --Deepak D'Souza (talk • contribs) 05:24, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Supposed issues of neutrality and verifiability
I don't get what's so bad about the sources and why its neutrality is disputed - its Nepali and Indian newspapers, not blog or personal sites. And the article is brief and to the point - it describes the pre-Sagauli Nepal and why the "Greater Nepal" concept exists and what currency it has in Nepali politics. It has some bearing in Nepali politics, as the issue of Maoist propaganda suggests. It may not be mainsteam in Nepali politics, but its there. There is no judgment being made about whether the claims are right or wrong. Vishnava (talk) 13:18, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Greater Nepal article can remain
This article, in its present form, is to the point, unbiased and informative. It is not written from nationalistic POV. It can remain, as it is. Any refutations of the 'Facts' in it may be put in the discussion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki dr mahmad (talk • contribs) 16:30, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] encircled boundary line
what makes the difference between an "encircled boundary line" and an "area"? Article: "encircled boundary line of 367,575 sq. km kilometres covering an area of 147,181 square kilometres" Hmains (talk) 03:34, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
