Exactly one year after the boundary row erupted between Nepal and India, General Manoj Mukund Naravane, chief of the Indian Army, is arriving on a three-day official visit to Kathmandu on Wednesday.

General Naravane will be the first senior Indian official to visit Nepal after the boundary dispute arose between the two neighbours when India released a new political map incorporating Nepali territories currently occupied by India, last November.

Diplomats and experts have maintained a cautious approach about the visit of Indian army chief who will be conferred the rank of honorary General of the Nepali Army President Bidhya Devi Bhandari on Thursday. Nepal and India have a historic tradition of conferring the honorary title to each other's army chief since 1950.
