Bangladesh is a key pillar of India's Neighbourhood First policy, but recent developments on both sides threaten to disrupt the Sonali Adhyay in bilateral relations. Analyze.

Once PM Modi referred the relation between India and Bangladesh as the Shamoli Adhyay (The golden period)

However the development at Sheikh Hasine regime change and the interim govt of Muhammad Yunus has raised concern in Delhi.

The Shamoli Adhyay was based on the pillar at NFP (Neighborhood first policy). Both countries forged relation in trade, energy (Bangladesh-India-friendly-ship-pipeline) and people to people to.

Bangladesh helped India to quell the insurgents and enhanced the crisis between both countries through connecting projects like Agaarta-Akhtaur and border hosts.

However, the July revolution and aftermath in Bangladesh charged the aftermath in relationship. This can be seen in how on axis is developing between Bangladesh-Pakistan-China.

The Uyghur or Md. Yunus in China about India's north east also raked the relation. Further more, the attacks on the Myanmar along with the visibly refugee surge in the border states also added to the friction.

The ban of certain Bangladeshi products by India alloy with a retaliatory ban by Bangladesh (raw jute skips export) again exacerbated the tensions.

The recent visit between PM Modi and Muhammad Yunus on the sidelines of BIMSTEC Summit could entangle the relation ship. However, the Teejin river dispute is still not settled. Similarly the Gaur Water treaty is going to expire by next year. (2025)

Thus, as a vaijayee once said we can't change long neighbors, it they better correct it. Bangladesh and India's relation should return to the Shamoli Adhyay for Western South Asia.
