Why is India worried?
Actually, Nepal is a neighboring country of India. Both countries share border. There is also a dispute between Nepal and India regarding some areas. Which India considers as part of its country and Nepal as its own. On the other hand, Nepal's KP Sharma Oli government is considered to be supported by China. Oli is in favor of China. In such a situation, India's tension increases that Nepal may enter into an agreement with China on such an issue which may cause problems to it in the future. At the same time, China's expansionist policy always remains in such a jugaad. He is always waiting for such an opportunity so that he can somehow capture other countries.
