AT his first meeting with Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, Chairman of Myanmar's State Administration Council, on the sidelines of the BIMSTEC summit in Bangkok on Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized the urgent need for the early restoration of Myanmar's democratic process through credible and inclusive elections.
The Prime Minister expressed condolences for the loss of life and the damage caused by the recent earthquake in Myanmar. The two sides discussed India's ongoing efforts under Operation Brahma to provide humanitarian aid, disaster relief, and medical assistance to the country.
Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said: "The Prime Minister also underlined the importance of early restoration of the democratic process in Myanmar, including through credible and inclusive elections, and that India would support all efforts, as it has in the past, at fostering trust and advancing a Myanmar-owned and Myanmar-led transition towards a peaceful, stable, and democratic future."
