I have the honour to refer to Your Excellency's Note
No. RAN/111/1/78 dated 4 September 1978 which reads as follows:
"I have the honour to refer to the Agreement between the Government of the Republic of India and tfcs Gove /inner: i of tha Kingdom of Thailand on the delimitation of tsabc-f' boundary between .the two countries in the Andaman Sea, signed at Ktw Delhi on Juse 22, 1978. In the chart annexed to the authenticated text of the Agreement, the words "Maritime Boundary" and f'Seabsd Boundary" have beers shown in brackets in the title. Since the agreei title of the Agreement refers to the delimj cation of Seabed^ JBoundary^ between our two countries, a technical error thus has crepiTTrf.
2. I have the honour to propose that the titJe part in the chart be corrected to read cs follows:
"India - Thailand Seabed Bcrrr-daary"
and this text will replace the earlier incorrect t:itlee
3. 1 have the honour further to propose that this Kote and Yeur Excellency's reply concurring therein constitute an integral< part of the Agreement of June 22, 1978."
In reply, I have the honour to inform Your Excellency
