The SSB, a paramilitary force that guards India's frontier with Nepal, has expressed concern over the emergence of Chinese study centres in the neighbouring country allegedly indulging in anti-India propaganda.
Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) chief Arun Chaudhary today shared these concerns with his counterpart in Nepal Police Inspector General (IG) Upendra Kant Aryal who visited the forces' headquarters here as the leader of a delegation for bi-lateral border talks.
Chaudhary conveyed to Aryal that the Chinese study centres were sprouting in Nepal fast and these centres were allegedly indulging in anti-India propaganda.
The two forces also decided to create a joint task force to address trans-border crimes and the menace of fake Indian currency notes being prevalent in border areas.
SSB Director General (DG) Chaudhary, an official statement from the paramilitary said, highlighted the plight of FICN giving example how poor labourers were being cheated of reimbursement of their hard work as there were reports that payments were being giving to them in fake notes.
Both the sides, during the day-long meeting, decided to strengthen their mechanism to curb smuggling of narcotics and human trafficking.
