Nepal offers easy border for Pak, Chinese nationals sneaking into India

Noida, July 8 Nepal, which shares borders with several Indian states, but has no proper fencing, is becoming a safe passage for Pakistan and Chinese people as they infiltrate into India, and later indulge in illegal work.

Recently, a Pakistani woman identified as Seema Ghulam Haider fell in love with an Indian man and illegally entered India through Nepal along with her four children.

The couple got in touch in 2019 through the online game PUBG and eventually got closer.

The woman along with her four children had been staying at a rented accommodation in Greater Noida for about 50 days.

After her arrest, the Noida Police wrote a letter to the central security agencies asking them to investigate the matter and also wrote a letter to the Home Ministry to improve the security arrangements at the entry and exit points of Nepal.
