evidence: In his reaction, Nepal Prime Minister KP Oli said that the Kalapani area at the tri-junction of Nepal, India and Tibet belonged to Nepal, and "India should immediately withdraw its army". [...] A disputed territory between India and Nepal, Kalapani is situated on the eastern banks of the river Mahakali and is considered by India to be a part of Uttrakhand’s Pithoragarh district, while Nepal contests that the area falls under its district called Darchula. [...] The valley of Kalapani, with the Lipulekh Pass at the top, forms the Indian route to the ancient pilgrimage site of Kailash–Manasarovar. Kalapani is located at an altitude of 3,600 metres and borders Uttarakhand in India and Sudurpashchim Pradesh in Nepal.
