Buddha was born in NEPAL and Not in INDIA

Sometime ago, I had a debate with an Indian citizen.This guy said there was no existence of either Nepal or India at the time of Lord Buddha's birth. I completely agree with his statement there,indeed, was no existence of the identity so, why is India then proclaiming abt Buddha's birthplace reigning at their own soil???....

That guy was completely speechless after i threw back with this arrow.

There was no NAME of state....nobody knows how the situation was like when Lord Buddha walked just after his birth....there is still no invention of time machine....we can only assume or imagine...

 But in present context, UN has verified tht Nepal is the true, & i mean, the only birthplace of Lord Buddha..

I dont know if another Buddha has appeared who took birth in India....no offence, but dear indian govt, we will never raise our voice tht Nepal has given birth 2 ur own legend Vagat singh or say Mahatma Gandhi...we have enormous respect for these idols....but tht doesnt simply mean we r under ur terriotory....we r free, sovereign country....learn 2 respect it 1st....respect is simply earned, not asked....hence, i jus want 2 clarify tht its our responsibility 2 establish the truth at the apex....

Recently, Buddha statue has been uploaded @ UN headquarter with its sublime stating tht Nepal is the birthplace of Gautam Buddha...
