Kathmandu: Chinese security personnel have allegedly fired tear gas at a Nepali team who had reached Namkha of Humla district to monitor the border pillar, pointing towards yet another Beijing's move of aggression towards neighbours, media reports said.
The Chinese side fired tear gas shells targeting the Nepali team — led by Nepali Congress (NC) leader Jeevan Bahadur Shahi — when the latter were returning from Namkha after monitoring the post in Humla, reports Khabarhub news portal.
Pena Lama, vice-chairperson of Namkha village municipality, told the news portal the Chinese side fired tear gas during the monitoring of the border pillar at the Namkha rural municipality.
He said that tear gas was fired near pillar no 9 when they were returning after monitoring the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th border pillars.
