Shekhar Gupta, Editor-in-Chief, The Indian Express on Indo-Bangladesh relations
In December or January, Bangladesh also goes for general elections. Sheikh Hasina has been incredibly brave in turning around her India policy. And our inability to deliver on two solemn agreements, Teesta waters (blocked by Mamata) and now the land boundary pact, are already becoming killer embarrassments for her. If she loses, and Khaleda, backed by Islamist forces, returns, India will be the biggest loser.If Tripura can convert some of its underground gas into power, it is only because Bangladesh has let you transport those giant generators by barge through its rivers. They would have never reached there through our narrow, winding mountain roads. It has forced the ISI to shut shop. It has also disbanded the Bangladesh Rifles, which had become such a malevolent presence on our borders – remember that ghastly visual of the bodies of our BSF patrolmen killed by the BDR being carried,hanging by their limbs tied to sticks?http://www.thedailystar.net/beta2/news/national-interest-dear-narendrabhai/
