India Completes 9km Border Fencing at Moreh Along Myanmar Border

India has completed a 9.214 km-long border fencing project at Moreh, Manipur, along the India-Myanmar border. The initiative, led by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO), aims to enhance security, curb illegal cross-border activities, and improve accessibility for strengthened patrolling.
Work is currently underway on a road running parallel to the fence. This development is part of broader efforts to secure the 1,600 km porous border, which spans four northeastern states, including Manipur. The border has long been a hotspot for smuggling, illegal migration, and insurgent activities.
The fencing project at Moreh, a key trade hub, is also aligned with India’s push for infrastructural development in the northeast.
