Further, I have personally been very curious about the stone plaque that the British left behind in Nalapani, Dehra Dun, after Balbhadra Kunwar surrendered prior to the Sugauli Treaty of 1816 where the British generously acknowledge the valour of their Nepali adversaries.
The plaque is now gone, and the Nepalis of Dehra Dun have a festival on the hills every November but no one remembers the plaque.
