India's INS Sindhuvir To Become Myanmar Navy's First Submarine

Amid standoff with China, India plans to give INS Sindhuvir, a Kilo class submarine, to Myanmar Navy. The handover will be under SAGAR (Security and Growth for All in the Region) initiative of India. The move followed Army chief Narvane's meeting with Myanmar state counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi and military heads. Reportedly, INS Sindhuvir will become the first submarine of Myanmar, which shares a 1640-km-long border with India's north-eastern states.
