This essentially states India's policies in Myanmar. It was only a year ago India reached out to rebel groups and the ousted lawmakers. The author conveniently forgot to add India is also attempting to find a market in Myanmar for its military equipment exports.

"While China plays both sides in Myanmar, India must ensure that it does not lose ground by hesitating to act. The security and stability of the four northeastern states of India bordering Myanmar—Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Mizoram and Manipur—and securing its investments in the region are of prime importance to India. For that India must reach out to the rebel groups in consultation with the military junta to extend non-lethal humanitarian aid and help relocate and settle the refugees. By extending non-lethal assistance, India will uphold its regional leadership, counter China’s unchecked influence and reinforce stability along its eastern frontier without direct military involvement."
