India seems to be standing out as a reluctant neighbour with neither the heft nor the intent to play any role in the biggest ongoing crisis in the region.
Mizoram's Champhai district administration has issued an alert against an influx of refugees from Myanmar, officials said. The state shares a 404km porous border with Myanmar.
A stable, democratic Myanmar is necessary for India to unlock the potential of 'Act East', and to stabilise the politics of Nagaland, Manipur, and Assam.
The UNSC issued a press statement about Myanmar three days after the military seized power in the Southeast Asian nation in a bloodless coup and detained top political leaders.
As Myanmar heads towards forming a new government, experts say India needs to ensure the South Asian nation maintains a balance between New Delhi and Beijing.
This is going to be the second election in Myanmar since 2011, when decades of rule by the military junta ended. India has been actively engaged in pitching for Rohingya repatriation to Myanmar.
The step is in accordance with India's vision of SAGAR (Security and Growth for All in the Region) and commitment to building capacities, self-reliance in the neighbouring countries.
India’s industrial output growth saw a 10-month low in June, with Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growing by mere 1.5% as against 1.9% in May 2025.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
Whatever be the truth of the recent allegations, why should an establishment that serves duty paid liquor anywhere in the country be subject to predatory visits from police or excise officials. This should form a component of the Ease of Doing Business Index. The one aspect on which the police should be unforgiving is to curb driving under the influence of liquor.
One understands the central government’s very muted response to the military coup. Followed the brutal repression by the soldiers, who have already shot dead 250 idealistic young freedom fighters. Even so, sending fleeing Burmese back to almost certain death or incarceration would violate the globally respected principle of Refoulement. Soldiers / policemen who are showing both principle and courage should certainly be protected. How civilians should be treated is for the government to determine. Other Quad members will be observant.
