Myanmar shares a 1,643 km long unfenced border with the Indian states of Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, and Mizoram. This border has posed significant challenges related to infiltration and smuggling, prompting the Union Home Ministry to prioritize its security. The Ministry has also announced plans to phase out the Free Movement Regime (FMR) with Myanmar and implement demographic mapping to support fencing efforts. These steps aim to enhance security and stability in the border regions while addressing broader issues of regional development.
