Myanmar President Min Aung Hlaing arrives in India for a five-day visit aimed at strengthening bilateral cooperation. Multiple outlets report that the trip begins with his arrival at Bodh Gaya in Bihar, where he visits the Mahabodhi temple, before traveling to Delhi for meetings with Indian leadership. The talks are expected to include Prime Minister Narendra Modi, with coverage describing the visit as focused on boosting ties across areas such as trade, connectivity, border security and defence. Indian officials welcome the president at the start of the trip, including mention of a greeting at the airport by Bihar Governor Lt Gen Syed Ata Hasnain (Retd).
