Context
As per the author India should learn from the way China has handled the Rohingya issue

- Ceasefire: A ceasefire on the ground
- Bilateral talks b/w Myanmar & Bangladesh: Once this is seen as working and people are no longer fleeing, talks between Myanmar and Bangladesh to work out the modalities of return of the Rohingya from their camps in Bangladesh to their homes in Rakhine
- Long-term solution: Poverty alleviation
