Nepali Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli has said that Hindu deity Ram was born in the Himalayan nation and not India, as he accused New Delhi of "encroaching on cultural facts" amid frayed diplomatic relations between the two South Asian neighbours.

"We have been oppressed a bit culturally. Facts have been encroached," Oli said at a function at his residence in the capital, Kathmandu, on Monday, according to Nepali news website setopati.com.
