Summary / Abstract (Note) | India and Myanmar have been enjoying the mutual contact in the field of trade, commerce, religion, law, political philosophy and culture. The British Raj was making its control over two lands for years together. Myanmar got its independence and India was also freed from the shackles of British rule on 15th Aug, 1947. Nehru and U Nu developed a friendship that created the foundation of good Indo- Burmese relation. When India supported pro-democracy movement and criticized the ruling military Junta in Myanmar, the relation between two nations came down. However, in 1990s, the relation between two countries restored again. They are co-operating in all fields including countering insurgency on the border, checking narcotics smuggling across the border, sharing intelligence on a real-time basis, promoting trade and investment. There are four important factors such as cultural, political, economic and security that involve relations with Myanmar. |
