ADG, SSB and IG APF have been holding Co-ordination meetings every year since 2012 alternatively in India and Nepal.

The official also said that several important matters like the security situation along the border, coordination meetings at field level, sharing of information about crimes and criminals, training of armed police personnel and mutual visits by officers of two countries are on the agenda and that will be discussed in detail.

India and Nepal not only share the boundary but also share the cultural relations with each other on trade, economic partnership and people to people contact. The matrimonial alliances between the people living on the border have been very common for a long time.
