Nepal set to provideconditional transit route to India By Milan Mani Sharma KATHMANDU, Jan 27 - The government is all set to provide a transit route to India for conducting trade with China, but with conditions that it provide financial assistance in constructing roads, inland clearance depots (ICD) and other necessary infrastructure. A government source told the Post that the conditional offer was developed on the basis of a study conducted by Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supplies (MoICS). India has been pushing Nepal to provide it a transit route for conducting trade with China, Tibet in particular, since the last few years.
