The Assam Rifles have confirmed that the formation sign worn by the Myanmar Army officer is clearly visible and proves the same as these formal insignias are indicative of the formation which the officer belongs too. 

These are regular meetings that happen on a regular basis for regular interaction and coordination with the Myanmar Army to plan and execute operations against the insurgent groups and drug syndicates operation on both sides of the border, said AR

Meanwhile, Assam Rifles has deplored such malicious attempts to malign its image and promote disharmony among the Manipuri society.
