The [[Mechi River]] is the international border between [[Nepal]] and [[India]] which was fixed in 1816 by signing the [[Treaty of Sugauli]] between [[Kingdom of Nepal]] and [[British East India Company]] during [[Company rule in India]]. But although the river is the official boundary line, much of the land east of the river belongs to Nepal due to changes in the course of the river. Between 1818 and 1873, the Mechi River changed course, resulting in some parts of Nepal moving across the river.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://globalpressjournal.com/asia/nepal/cut-off-country-people-want-bridge/ |title=Cut Off From Their Own Country, All These People Want Is a Bridge |date=1 May 2024 |website= |publisher=Global press gernal |access-date=21 May 2024 }}</ref><br />
