[Aryan0395]

NEW DELHI: India is set to hand over Myanmar its first ever submarine, with a Kilo class boat likely to be sent across this year after being refitted indigenously.

The INS Sindhuvir will be used by the Myanmar Navy — which is looking at acquiring its own submarine fleet in the coming years — for training purposes.

these indian not consider mayanmar brutality against rohingya Muslims when they sell this submarine to them but when china sold jf17 they were saying that china and Pakistan are supporting brutality of mayanmar.Indian double standards are evident once again

YES thats obvious Indian reaction to Bangladesh made deal with China for building its submarine base.

Bangladesh navy knew today or tomorrow Myanmar will purchase subs thats why Navy also ordered 159 ASW helis.

Dedicated attack submarine Kilo class are definitely ahead of ming class but our ming subs also have been fitted with number of european equipments.

Anyways though its now clear signal to government we are in a weapons competition with Myanmar.

BD should buy our old Agusta 70s as we might be retiring them soon

Double standards are everywhere...who doesn't have it.

Pakistan blames India for not saying against plight of Rohingyas...but on the other hand does not let them into it's land. What has Pakistan done for them?
Similarly, Pakistan cries against Muslim atrocities happening in India/Kashmir but conveniently ignores what is happening in China (Uighur Muslims)....

Condition of chinese Muslims is much better than kashmiris and rohangya as china has not killed such no of Muslims

Says who..their media? and based on that we make our perception and start judging.....
Their press is not free (being communist country)...even more than that of ours in Pakistan..... one of the reason we see so many incidents about India and not of China/Pak is because press is free to report facts and fakes there (so called freedom of press/speech) where as we cannot imagine that it here/China/Russia/Iran etc.....

Hundresd and thousands of Rohingyas live in Pakistan even today in case you missed it

Yup..but they 'have been living here for decades...Have we invited more after the recent conflict started 3 years before?

So apparently, Pakistanis are fine with selling Jf-17s to Myanmar, despite knowing they will be used against Rohingya militant camps. Yet Pakistanis and some Bangladeshis are getting butthurt that India is giving a submarine to Myanmar for training purposes.

ignoring the trolls, this is a good development. Not only will this help increase India's engagement with SE Asia, but this is also a good step to boost India's defense industry and defense ties with its neighbors.
