A parliamentary committee in Nepal has told the government to modernize the country's border security system, highlighting the need for a more effective, better managed and technology-driven approach. The direction came from the National Assembly’s Federalism Enablement and National Concerns Committee in Kathmandu.

According to the committee’s message, Nepal must adapt its border management to emerging security challenges. The focus is not only on strengthening security, but also on improving how the system is organized and operated so it can respond more efficiently.

The push for reform suggests growing concern that traditional methods may no longer be enough for present-day border risks. By calling for technology-based upgrades, the committee is signaling that future border security should rely more on modern tools and stronger coordination.

The development places border management higher on Nepal’s policy agenda, with lawmakers urging the government to move beyond routine administration and build a more capable system for current and future challenges.
