Nepal removes disputed map from new one-rupee coin
Nepal is minting new coins and has removed a controversial political map from its one-rupee coin. The map, which included disputed territories claimed by India, has been replaced with an image of an ancient monastery. The one-rupee coin previously featured the map showing Limpiyadhura, Lipulekh, and Kalapani. The decision comes amid a border row between Nepal and India over these territories.
