The Treaty of Sugauli (also spelled Sugowlee , Sagauli and Segqulee) famously known as the treaty for Establishing boundary line of Nepal was signed on 2 December 1815 and ratified by 4 March 1816 between the East India Company and King of Nepal following the Anglo-Nepalese War of 1814-16. The signatory for Nepal was Raj Guru Gajraj Mishra aided by Chandra Sekher Upadhayaya,the signatory for the Company was Lieutenant Colonel Paris Bradshaw. The treaty called for territorial concessions in which parts of Nepal would be given to British India, the establishment of a British representative in Kathmandu, and allowed Britain to recruit Gurkhas for military service. Nepal also lost the right to deploy any American or European employee in its service (earlier several French commanders had been deployed to train the Nepali army).
