Myanmar to be a bus ride away - Cabinet mulls Imphal-Mandalay service
The Telegraph | New Delhi, May 23:
The cabinet is set to give its approval to a weekly bus service connecting the Manipur capital, Imphal, with the Myanmar city of Mandalay.
After the cabinet approval, slated for Thursday, a memorandum of understanding is expected to be signed between the two governments during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s visit to Myanmar by the end of this month. The service will be available on Mondays only. On both sides, it will be outsourced to private bus operators, though the fare has not been decided yet.
The final technical discussions were held between the two countries during a two-day visit to Myanmar by joint secretary of the ministry of road transport and highways, S. Narendra, on May 10-11.
