India on Monday extended its support to Myanmar in organising a peace conference, which is due to begin on August 31 and will comprise major insurgent groups, some of which operate from areas along the border between the two countries.
The development comes close on the heels of China's support to Myanmar's peace initiatives with the insurgent groups.
