注二： 《印度斯坦时报》一篇文章 Letters show Nehru didn’t endorse British-era treaty with China on Sikkim border，在引用尼赫鲁原文时，用双引号 “This clearly refers to northern Sikkim and not to the tri-junction which needed to be discussed with Bhutan and Sikkim and which is today the contentious area. And once more, let us not forget that the 1890 Treaty was an unequal treaty as Tibet, Sikkim and Bhutan were not involved”，这表示这段文字是尼赫鲁的原文。然而笔者对比过原文，确认这不是原信件的内容，很可能只是该文章作者的诠释。这种把诠释作为原文的做法显然是错误的。现在不知道这是故意还是失误，但这段话已经被广泛转载了，引起的混淆必须澄清。
