The Chinese People's Liberation Army has constructed at least nine buildings in Nepal's Humla district, Times of India has reported.

The building have reportedly been built at a distance of 2 kilometre from the border in an area called Lapcha-Limi. The Chinese have also restricted local residents of the province from entering the area. The report adds that China is making transgressions into the Lapcha-Limi area for quite a few years now.


China had first built a solitary building in Lapcha-Limi almost a decade ago. Upon dissent from Nepal, China claimed that it was a veterinary centre.

“Since Lapcha-Limi is in a remote area and Nepalese administration does not have a very effective presence here, no one knows when the one building mushroomed into nine buildings,” says the report.
