India, Myanmar ink 3 accords

No details were given about the talks between Singh and the general. But the two sides signed three accords including one on security issues. They also agreed to step up cooperation in trade, economic and other key areas.

The general arrived Sunday accompanied by a cabinet delegation whose portfolios include industry, energy and communications. His six-day trip is the first to India in 24 years by a head of state of the secretive country formerly known as Burma, which has been under military rule since 1962.
