Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, on October 23, 2020, had conveyed his best wishes to the people of Nepal for Dashain Festival on his Twitter handle.<\/p>\n
However, PM Oli’s festival wishes courted controversy on social media for using the old political map of Nepal in the greeting message.<\/p>\n
The PM was criticized and trolled on social media for not using the revised political map of Nepal that included three disputed areas, Lipulekh, Kalapani, and Limpiyadhura.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In response to the massive criticism, the Nepali Government clarified that the map used in PM Oli’s Dashain greetings was distorted because of technical reasons and added that the administration is seriously looking into the matter.<\/p>\n
