China has annexed the Rui village of Nepal and has made it a part of Tibet.

There is insufficient evidence publicly available at the current time to objectively verify the given claim.

There is insufficient evidence publicly available at the current time to objectively verify the given claim.The Rui village of Gorkha under Rui Bhot was allegedly taken over by China, and the village has now been annexed to Tibet. Reports suggest that the Chinese military has removed the border pillar and has taken over the village where 72 families live. Reports indicate that the land was taken over by China in 1962.

Nepal included this village as part of its territory in its maps. The land revenue official of Gorkha claims that records of revenue paid to the Nepalese government were amongst their documents locker. Historians allege that neither was Rui lost in war nor did the Chinese encroach the territory, but it was a mistake while placing the border pillars. Both the Chinese and Nepalese governments have not commented on the matter, and an official confirmation is required to validate the integrity of the given claim.
