Abstract

 The current crisis in Nepal has political, cultural social and emotional dimensions too. But India should have responded with pre-cautions. It should be prepared to show more sympathy, concern and kindness towards a nation like Nepal. Nobody denies India’s contribution to the overall economic, social and trade developments of Nepal. Along with India’s assistants on several areas, it should also be prepared to understand the mindsets of Nepali people. If Government of India fails to ensure the warmthness and intimacy of the Nepali common man, whatever economic contribution extended to the land lock country may not be acknowledged by them with an open mind. The Indian foreign policy operators should take urgent and timebound efforts to normalize Indo-Nepal relations for the sake of both the parties.
