The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has advised all Indians to evacuate Myanmar's Rakhine state due to worsening security conditions. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal emphasized the ongoing conflict, urging citizens to refrain from traveling there. India seeks peace and stability in Myanmar, advocating for constructive dialogue and inclusive democracy. The advisory follows heightened violence after ethnic minority forces launched an offensive last October. This situation prompted a surge of refugees into Mizoram, along the Indo-Myanmar border. The MEA cites disrupted telecommunications and scarcity of essentials in Rakhine as reasons for the cautionary measure.
