ANNFSU central committee member Babarjung Singh and Kanchanpur chairman of ANNFSU Narendra Bhat addressed the assembly.
Unveiling a new political map on November 2, the Indian government placed Nepali territory Kalapani inside Indian borders.
Earlier last week, Nepal strongly opposed the Indian move while asserting that the country would not tolerate any unilateral actions carried out by India on the Nepali territory.
Even though historical facts show that Kalapani is a Nepali territory, the Indian paramilitary force has been illegally stationing there since the India-China war in 1962.
