Seven Indian states are landlocked, and the only route to the sea lies through us

  • Bangladesh Interim Govt’s Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus Issues Implicit Threat to India During Visit to China

  • Yunus Urges China to Establish Factories in Bangladesh!

Beijing (China) – Muhammad Yunus, the Chief Advisor to Bangladesh’s interim government, issued an implicit warning to India, stating that seven Indian states, known as the “Seven Sisters,” are landlocked and have no access to the sea. He added that Bangladesh is the only protector of the seas in this region, leaving unlimited options open. Yunus made these remarks while inviting China to invest in Bangladesh during his four-day visit to China. He suggested that if China wants to take control of India’s seven states, it should invest in Bangladesh. (Such individuals need to be taught a lesson ! – Editor)

While in China, Yunus made these statements in a meeting with entrepreneurs, specifically about India’s Northeast. He also shared a video of his speech on his Facebook account.

In another detailed post on Facebook, Yunus wrote that China should relocate its factories to Bangladesh. The Chinese economy can expand in Bangladesh, which can become a manufacturing hub to export products to West Asia. There are no trade restrictions in Bangladesh, and investors making direct foreign investments will find an excellent competitive environment and profit opportunities.

Previously, Yunus had also emphasized the importance of strengthening relations between Bangladesh and China. He referred to China as “Bangladesh’s good friend” and expressed hope that a new phase of cooperation between the two countries would begin at the end of his visit to China.

Seriousness Must Be Given to Yunus’s Provocative Statements – Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma responded to Yunus’s remarks, saying such provocative statements should be taken seriously. He suggested that Yunus likely has in-depth strategic thinking and a long-term agenda regarding these matters. Yunus’s statement reflects his focus on India’s strategic “Chicken Neck Corridor” (a narrow, roughly 22-kilometer strip of land in Bengal, which is the only land route connecting Northeast India to the rest of the country). Historically, internal factions in India have received dangerous advice to sever this vital corridor, which Yunus seems to be suggesting. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a more robust network of railways and roads around the Chicken Neck Corridor. Prioritizing the search for and development of alternative routes connecting the Northeast to the rest of India is essential.

What is the Meaning of This Statement ? – Sanjeev Sanyal

Sanjeev Sanyal, a member of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Economic Advisory Council, shared Yunus’s video on X (formerly Twitter) and raised the question: “China is welcome to invest in Bangladesh, but what does it mean when Yunus says India’s seven states are landlocked?”

Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma, the leader of the Tipra Motha Party in Tripura, condemned Yunus’s statement, saying that India’s biggest mistake was abandoning the Chittagong port in present-day Bangladesh in 1947. He emphasized that a route should be developed for local people to access the sea with their support.

Editorial Perspective

Bangladesh has become the second Pakistan for India. The inactivity of India, which has never been able to resolve its issues with Pakistan over the last 78 Years, is now reflecting in Bangladesh. This gives Yunus the audacity to issue such threats, which poses a danger to India.
