<b>Saran to visit Myanmar for energy cooperation on Sunday</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->India has initiated a move to acquire gas from Myanmar, particularly from two offshore blocks. As per an initial plan, the gas had to be supplied through a pipeline to be laid between the two countries through Bangladesh.
However, Bangladesh maintained a "negative" attitude with regard to the proposed pipeline passing through its territory, delaying implementation of the proposal for a year.
In the wake of this attitude, India has decided to by-pass Bangladesh and started the process for making alternate arrangements for receiving the hydrocarbon.
State-owned Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) had asked a private company to conduct feasibility studies to transport gas from Myanmar to be received at Patna.
Another study had been commissioned to assess feasibility of transporting the gas in the form of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) bypassing Bangladesh.
Other issues to be discussed will be Kaladan Multi-Modal transport project and Tamu-Kalewa-Kalemyo road project
