NSA advisor Ajit Doyal to visit Myanmar soon

Following the surgical strike carried out by the Indian army, national security advisor Ajit Doval will visit Myanmar soon to discuss further "joint action" against insurgents.
According to an ET report, Doval is believed to be closely involved in planning yesterday's operation along the India-Myanmar border. He will undertake the visit in order to discuss with the authorities there "further joint action" against Northeast insurgents, senior government officials told ET.

The report suggested that the government and armies of the two countries are in "close and continued" contact on the issue. Following the strike, the Indian Ambassador to Myanmar Gautam Mukhopadhaya reviewed the post-operation scenario along with Myanmar government’s senior officials in the country’s capital Nay Pyi Tow.

On yesterday's strike by the Indian army, the sources said India invoked May 2014 Border Agreement with Myanmar on border cooperation.
India and Myanmar had signed the MoU on border operation on May 8 last year, providing for a framework for security cooperation and exchange of information between security agencies of the two countries.

A key provision of the pact was conduct of coordinated patrols on their respective sides of the international border and the maritime boundary by the Armed Forces of the two countries.
