At least a dozen meetings planned for June and July, says Nepal deputy PM and foreign minister Kamal ThapaIn a flip-flop, Nepal’s deputy prime minister and foreign minister Kamal Thapa on Friday said ties between his country and India are “back on track” and in an excellent state. Thapa’s comments come around a month after Nepal Prime Minister K.P. We are back on track,” Thapa, who arrived in India on Friday on a brief visit, said. Both countries, it seemed, had turned the page on their six-month-old acrimonious relationship when in February the Nepalese Prime Minister visited India. The chill happened despite two visits by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Nepal in 2014 to reverse what was called years of neglect of Nepal by New Delhi.
