Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh today said the ongoing Inter-Regional Media Interaction Programme between Myanmar and India marks the beginning of a new chapter in bilateral relations of the two countries.
Speaking at the inaugural session, Biren said the interaction would strengthen ties through "people-to-people" connectivity between the two neighbours.
Talking about the media, the chief minister said in a democracy, it should be strengthened to play a crucial role in delivering good governance and creating good civic sense among the masses.
The two-day programme will also focus on the media's role in promoting India's Act East Policy, and its role in highlighting about connectivity and trade between Myanmar and India.
