Nepal’s government has denied claims that China is planning to recruit Nepalis to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). The claims were made in a number of Indian media outlets, but there is no evidence to support them.

The government has said that it has not received any proposal from China to recruit Nepalis for the PLA. The government has also said that it is committed to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Nepal.

The claims of China recruiting Nepalis in the PLA are likely being spread by Indian media outlets in an attempt to create tensions between Nepal and India. This is a dangerous and irresponsible act that could have serious consequences for the region.

It is important to be critical of the news that you read and to only trust news from reputable sources. If you see a news article that seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Here are some tips for spotting fake news:

  • Check the source of the news. Is it a reputable news organization?
  • Look for evidence to support the claims that are being made. Is there any data or expert opinion to back up the claims?
  • Be aware of the bias of the news organization. Is the news organization trying to push a particular agenda?
  • Use your common sense. Does the news article make sense? Does it seem plausible?
