An Indian citizen was injured after Nepalese police allegedly shot three men near the India-Nepal border in Kishanganj of Bihar, the ANI news agency reported.
The injured person was taken to the hospital and an investigation is ongoing in the case, the Kishanganj Police Superintendent told ANI.
This is the second such incident to be reported from the India-Nepal border in recent times. Last month, the Nepal Armed Police Force, which is responsible for border security, opened fire on a group during a clash at a border point near Sitamarhi in Bihar, killing one Indian and injuring two others.
However, senior police officers from Nepal and Bihar and the Sashastra Seema Bal stuck to calling it a local incident and argued that it had nothing to do with the borderline between Delhi and Kathmandu over territorial claims to Kalapani, Lipulekh, and Limpiyadhura in Uttarakhand.
