           From April 1802 to March 1803, East India Company representative in Nepal Captain Nauks could not improve the commercial benefits to East India Company. He was called back to Kolkata from Nepal. Bhardar of Nepal were suspicious about East India company. Bhardars of Nepal were of opinions that East India Company would grab freedom of Nepal. In 1795, East India Company sent its representative Maulavi Abdul Kadir to Nepal who suggested that Company should have direct commercial relation with Tibet than Nepal being an intermediate.

 Nauks suggested that East India Company should have rule over Kumaon (that was under Nepal) for connecting Tibet. However, Nepal did not cooperate with East India Company.
