After the video surfaced, a wave of anger erupted in India. Several defence experts and political analysts have termed it a direct threat to India’s sovereignty. Many have demanded that the Union Government and the Ministry of External Affairs strongly condemn the matter before the Bangladesh government.

Editorial Perspective

• On one hand, the newly elected Bangladesh Nationalist Party government in Bangladesh is trying to improve relations with India, while on the other hand it is displaying its anti-India jihadi mentality. This makes it clear that Bangladesh cannot be trusted !
• India is helping Bangladesh by supplying diesel when it is facing difficulties due to the Iran war. Indian establishments are supplying electricity to Bangladesh, and Bangladesh also receives Ganga water through India. Despite this, Bangladeshi leaders are making such statements ! India must immediately take steps to keep Bangladesh under control !
