Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh Tuesday said the formalities for starting a bus service between Imphal and Mandalay, the second largest city of neighbouring Myanmar, are at the final stage.
Efforts are also on to extend rail and air link from the north eastern state of Manipur to Myanmar, Singh said at a conference on Act East Policy in which delegates of the neighbouring country were also present.
The Act East Policy is "a reflection of commitment to deepen ties with the ASEAN region" and more importantly with Myanmar, he said.
On improving connectivity between Manipur capital Imphal and Myanmar, Singh said "Formalities for starting Mandalay-Imphal bus services are at its final stages."
