🇮🇳 🇧🇹 #India shares an open border of over 699 km with #Bhutan, with established mechanisms for security & information-sharing. Now, Tawang Police, SSB & border communities are strengthening that coordination on the ground. @thapagk
#NepalFloods showed the gaps: risk maps & laws exist, but no implementation. Data sharing with #China started only days after the disaster.
Never trust #Beijing. Settlements still sit in flood paths while #BalenShah talks “Himalayan tsunami” at the UN. @AnupKaphle
A rare sight of #BalenShah attending Parliament only under pressure after #NepalFloods, delivering monologues, and exiting.
Accountability is for lesser mortals.
Two-thirds majority & still allergic to questions.
Power without scrutiny is just vanity.
@gaunkomanchhey
Landlords are charging $900–$1,100 a month & sending rental income abroad, while NRB, DMLI & local wards pass responsibility around.
#BalenShah’s govt in #Nepal has yet to close this obvious loophole.
How long will it look away?

In Nepal’s premium rental market, the dollar is everywhere but on paper
Apartments and homes are increasingly listed in US dollars, edging out Nepali renters and operating in a legal gray zone that no regulator has ever tested.

BP Highway has been hit by floods repeatedly, exposing #Nepal’s infrastructure vulnerabilities. #India has long supported Nepal’s roads, bridges & disaster response. #BalenShah’s govt should seek practical regional help instead of letting critical links remain fragile. @thapagk
“Peace is not merely the absence of war.” - Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar
When competition turns extreme, even trade, technology, finance and information can become weapons.
The real danger is when confrontation becomes the default mindset.
With Dashain—a major Hindu festival—approaching, disrupted northern trade routes could hit Nepal’s festive supply chains. #India shares deep civilisational & religious ties with #Nepal. This is the moment for India–Nepal connectivity to deliver. @Alternative4Npl
Six months of change?
Six months of #BalenShah govt raise a hard question: the #NepalGenZProtest brought down the old political order, but building a functioning system is proving harder. Stalled reforms, delays & growing concerns over power concentration remain. @smadixit
This is a troubling development in #Nepal.
“Security” cannot become a blanket excuse for the #BalenShah govt to bypass due process.
When even the NHRC is denied access to a former Chief Justice, Nepal’s constitutional safeguards demand serious scrutiny. @NirmalPrasai5
🇮🇳🤝🇧🇹 The 500 kW Lunana Hydropower Project in Gasa is another example of #India-#Bhutan friendship delivering on the ground.
Financed by India, it will bring reliable clean energy to remote communities—development through trusted partnership. #NeighbourhoodFirst@namgayzam
🇨🇳 #China’s territorial ambitions cannot be viewed in isolation.
Any pressure on #Bhutan also has implications for #India’s security, especially near Arunachal Pradesh. #India’s longstanding partnership with #Bhutan remains a crucial pillar of Himalayan stability.
@JanJekielek
Russia backs India for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council. Another major voice recognising what India has long argued: the world’s largest democracy deserves a permanent place at the top table of global decision-making.
Nepal’s Foreign Minister says there may be “ebb and flow” on the political front, but describes ties with #India as “excellent.”
#Kathmandu should remember that political differences are temporary; strong India-#Nepal relations are a long-term necessity.
@tikaramyatri
🇳🇵 #BalenShah’s Himalayan resilience plan demands shared satellite data with #China.
But can Beijing be trusted with sensitive Himalayan information without full transparency?
The real challenge is verifying what China shares—& hides. @akhileshU
From the UN stage to a domestic controversy within a day, PM #BalenShah faces questions over the arrest of former CJ Cholendra Shumsher Rana.
#Nepal’s democratic institutions need due process & restraint—not actions that raise concerns about judicial independence.
@NirmalPrasai5
@realpbhattarai Even a small state like #Bhutan would be more effective & helpful than “censored” #Beijing!! Who knows what they’ll hide!!
Bring Bhutan in —and build resilience on trust, not Beijing’s influence. @subedibinu 3/
🇳🇵 #Nepal’s proposed Himalayan Climate Resilience Mechanism must not pretend #India & #China are equals. How transparent will Beijing really be? India has an open border, deep ties & disaster cooperation with Nepal. @KanakManiDixit 1/
What did #China do this time? It hid the warnings, let thousands of Nepali lives flow away in flash floods, and even after that, the #Nepal's PM is taking China’s name for resilience. @realpbhattarai 2/
A month after the Jajarkot landslide, 29 families are still living under tarpaulins, with rain forcing some into an unsafe school in #Nepal.
Homes remain at risk & permanent resettlement is undecided.
How long will #BalenShah’s govt leave survivors in limbo?
@MumaRamKhanal
Portugal PM Luís Montenegro backs UNSC expansion, including a permanent seat for India, alongside greater representation for Africa and Brazil. A stronger voice for emerging powers could make the Council more representative of today’s world.
