British Officials have said that Nepal has failed in its diplomacy to resolve blockade at border with India, while hinting that the crisis would further deepen because of Nepal's weak diplomacy, according to a Nepali Parliamentarian who is in London.

In a meeting with Chairman of Nepali Congress (NC) aligned Nepal Tarun Dal and lawmaker Udaya Sumsher Rana, who arrived here in UK to attend the International Leaders Programme, British Minister of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) Hugo Swire and James Duddridge, an Under-Secretary at the FCO, said that it was not appropriate for senior Nepali leaders to show aggression towards India.

“Leaders should try and improve relations with neighbour instead of becoming aggressive,” Rana quoted the officials as saying. “They also expressed serious concerns towards the growing humanitarian crisis due to the blockade,”

Lawmakers, human rights activists and NGO workers from Argentina, China, Columbia, Ghana, Uganda, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Serbia, and UAE, among other 11 countries, are participating in the programme.

Britain has taken contradictory position by first welcoming the consitution and then stating that the constitution was not inclusive during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s UK visit, Rana said.

“President and House Speaker of Nepal are women. Thirty-three percent of seats in the parliament and 40 percent of seats under proportional electoral system have been reserved for women. On which grounds can the constitution be described as not proportional?” he challenged.
