| Closely monitoring: Army Chief Gen Pande on Bhutan-China boundary talks | | | Agencies
NEW DELHI, Jan 11: As Bhutan and China looked at an expeditious resolution of their festering boundary row, Army Chief Gen Manoj Pandey on Thursday said the development is being closely monitored.
At a media briefing ahead of the Army Day, he said India has a unique bilateral relationship with Bhutan based on "utmost trust, goodwill and mutual understanding". "This relationship also transcends into the military domain as we have IMTRAT (Indian Military Training Team) right from the early 1960s. They are at the centre of our relationship," he said.
Gen Pande was responding to a question on China and Bhutan making progress in their boundary talks and whether any possible resolution would have security implications for India.
"Bhutan and we share mutual security concerns which both of us are aware of. The ongoing talks on the boundary which you alluded to, we are closely monitoring," he said.
"We are interacting with our friends in Bhutan on a transparent and regular basis," the Army Chief said. He said India's military relationship with Bhutan including training programmes is proceeding well.
