Former Minister Bhim Rawal Condemns Government's Decision to Remove Map from Nepali Coin

Kathmandu. Former minister and NCP leader Bhim Rawal has stated that the government's decision to remove the Chuche map from a one-rupee Nepali coin is another anti-national step.

'It has come out that the government, on the 32nd of Asar, decided to remove the map of Nepal, which includes Limpiyadhura, Lipulek, and Kalapani, from a one-rupee Nepali coin and replace it with a picture of the Lhu Bhakcur monastery built with American aid, and instructed the Nepal Rastra Bank,' Rawal wrote on social media on Sunday. 'If this has been done, it will be considered another serious anti-national and fatal decision against Nepal's territorial integrity, following the Prime Minister's statement that Nepal has encroached upon a lot of Indian land.'

Leader Rawal also stated that the Rastriya Swatantra Party and the Government of Nepal should immediately provide the public with the factual information regarding this matter.
