Abstract
Border management is very tough, sensitive and complex issue for states. A single
border management policy with applicability to every state simply does not exist.
Available resources and security concerns shape border policy, and since each state
has different needs to address, problems with border security vary greatly. They
encompass, for example, issues of trafficking, transnational organized crime,
terrorism, waves of illegal migration, political relations, and trade. The aggregate of
these activities creates the environment in which affect a border management.
As per the geographical condition, religious, ethnic, economic condition, security
threats and relation between neighboring countries they practiced suitable border
management system. International we can found mainly two types of border
management system restricted (Controlled and Closed Border) borders and open
borders. Both borders have same security concern which impact on country's
economic and social values. Border Management is a mechanism to ensure the
security of national borders and to regulate legitimate movements on borders to meet
various needs of nation by cultural, social, economical interactions. There are some
new approaches of border management which articulates a new strategic vision for
border processing and clearance. Those approaches bring several key concepts
together into a holistic new approach. They are collaborative border management,
Coordinated Border Management and integrated border management. Nepal and India
followed open border system and European Union and Schengen States applied
integrated border management system, which is more effective than Nepal and India
border.
