520 _aMyanmar has experienced two major military coups since its independence in 1948. These coups have had a significant impact on the socio-economic and political landscape of the country, particularly in the Indo-Myanmar border region. The region, which shares a 1,643-km-long border with India, is home to diverse ethnic groups with distinct cultures and languages. Military coups have not only disrupted the lives of these communities but have also perpetuated long-standing conflicts in the region. This article aims to unravel and scrutinise the ramifications, shedding light on the intricacies of socio-economic disparities, political destabilisation and the erosion of fundamental rights and freedoms by elucidating the complex interplay between military rule, socio-economic inequalities and political dynamics and the far-reaching implications of the 2021 military coup in the Indo-Myanmar borderland. The article employs a qualitative research methodology, drawing on primary and secondary sources, to provide a comprehensive analysis of the impact of military coups on the Indo-Myanmar border region.- Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/09749284241285223
