INSANE: Bimstec secretary general tenzin lekphell to visit india next week | Vintage Vibes

Tenzin Lekphell, the Secretary-General of the seven-nation grouping BIMSTEC, will pay a four-day visit to India beginning August 22 to explore ways to take forward the bloc’s cooperative agenda.

India has been making concerted efforts to make BIMSTEC a vibrant forum for regional cooperation as initiatives under SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) were not moving forward for a variety of reasons.

Announcing Mr. Lekphell’s visit from August 22 to 25, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said he will hold discussions with senior Indian officials on how to take forward cooperation in sync with the mandate of its leaders.
