Statements 1, 2, and 3 accurately describe Memorandum of Understandings (MoUs) signed between India and Myanmar during Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh’s visit in May 2012.
– During the May 2012 visit, several key agreements were signed to strengthen bilateral ties. These included MoUs on:
– Border area development cooperation.
– Establishment of a joint trade and investment forum.
– Cooperation in agriculture, including setting up an Advanced Centre for Agricultural Research and Education in Myanmar.
– Air services agreement, cultural exchange program, etc.
– Statement 4 is incorrect: There was no MoU signed regarding the establishment of a Rice Bio Park specifically located at New Delhi as part of the India-Myanmar bilateral agreements during that visit. The agreements focused on cooperation within Myanmar or on the border.
This visit was significant as it was the first by an Indian Prime Minister to Myanmar in 25 years and aimed at enhancing cooperation across various sectors following political reforms in Myanmar.
