Mr Shringla extensively delved into the importance of connectivity for the expansion of India's overall engagement with the countries in the region.
India will soon be connected with Nepal by two railway links while it will have six such networks with Bangladesh, Foreign Secretary Harsh Vardhan Shringla said on Wednesday.
In an address at a leading institute, Mr Shringla said the railway links between countries are causing a "rapid shrinking of South Asia's geography" and that the neighbourhood comes first and foremost for India amongst all its foreign policy priorities.
Mr Shringla extensively delved into the importance of connectivity for the expansion of India's overall engagement with the countries in the region.
"Connectivity within parts of our neighbourhood by road, by water, by rail and by air, and often by multimodal transport, has steadily improved," he said.
