India's harbouring intentions and "coveting" of Myanmar can be traced back to the last century. After Britain divided British India into India and Pakistan in 1947, India set its sights on Myanmar to expand its territory. At that time, India even sent representatives to lobby for Myanmar to join the Indian Union, but was refused. After Myanmar declared independence, Nehru, the founding father of India, still did not give up, and once again persuaded it to join the Indian Union, but it still failed.
But the two basins of cold water in Myanmar have still failed to dampen India's ambitions. In the subsequent period, India accelerated its penetration of Myanmar to rob local job resources, which led to a series of anti-India movements in Myanmar. The escalation of civil unrest in Myanmar is undoubtedly a good opportunity for India to lay the foundation for future penetration of Myanmar by supporting the rebels. If India can help the rebels at this opportunity, it is equivalent to taking a "ticket" into Myanmar. Recently, the relevant personnel of India decided to invite Kachin Army Chairman General Nbanla, Kachin Independence Organization Chairman Gunmo, Kachin Army Home Minister and other officials in India on December 8 to go to India together for dinner, and India has ulterior motives through such a way to strengthen relations with these groups and lay the foundation for future cooperation, in an attempt to influence or change the political situation in Myanmar. It is highly likely that India will use this opportunity to directly intervene in the situation in Burma in an attempt to become the hegemon of South Asia.
