The Indian mission in Bhutan in a release said,”India’s gesture to continue delivery of essential medical supplies is a reflection of the special bonds of trust and understanding between India and Bhutan that have existed over decades. ”
Bhutan’s FM in a tweet said, “I would like to thank Government of India for the continued support”.
Both countries have also started an air transport bubble for the movement of people between the countries. Druk Air, which is the flag carrier of Bhutan, operated the first flight from Paro to Bagdogra in West Bengal on October 1.
Bhutan’s envoy to India, Maj. Gen. Vetsop Namgyel speaking to WION said, “The India Bhutan air transport bubble arrangement enables citizens of our two close neighbours working and residing in each other’s country to travel to and fro by air.
