Vulnerable on four fronts.
"Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled the country as angry student protesters, demanding her resignation, stormed her official residence the Bongo Bhaban around 3 pm." HT. She came to India for safety. "A Bangladesh Air Force aircraft carrying former prime minister Sheikh Hasina landed at Hindon airbase near Ghaziabad (just outside Delhi)...and is expected to travel to London shortly." HT. She is no stranger to Delhi, having lived here for six years following the murder of her father and the rest of the family. "Her father, Sheikh Mujibur Rehman, affectionately known as the 'Bangabandhu' or 'Friend of Bengal', was brutally murdered along with most of his family members on 15 August 1975 in a military coup." "Sheikh Hasina and her sister, Sheikh Rehana, were in Europe at the time of the assassination and thus escaped the carnage." "The sisters were given shelter at a residence on Pandara Road in Delhi for six year," by then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. BT. "Just two months ago, after she returned to power, Hasina made shocking claims that a White country was hatching a conspiracy against her." She said in May that "she was offered a hassle-free re-election in the January 7 polls of she allowed a foreign country to build an airbase in Bangladesh." ET. Even President Joe Biden and the Democrats would not have been so stupid as to have engineered the fall of the Hasina government because the next government could allow China an entry into the country. "Intelligence agencies have identified Pakistan's ISI and its Chinese patron as key players in agitating protests and subversion," and "Information reveals the involvement of Islami Chhatra Shibir (ICS), the student wing of Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh, in converting protests over quotas into efforts to establish a regime favorable to Pakistan and China." "The ICS, known for its anti-India stance and jihadist agenda, has been under Indian intelligence surveillance for some time due to its activities in regions adjacent to Bangladesh and affiliation with ISI-backed Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI)." ET. "In a worrying development for India, the US intelligence community believes that the People's Republic of China (PRC) will continue to pursue the establishment of additional military installations and access agreements, including in New Delhi's neighborhood, with possible bases in Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Seychelles, and the UAE being in Beijing's sights." BS. "China might deploy PLA Navy marine corps units to provide security to overseas port like Gwadar (Pakistan)." ET. "A recent report by AidData...claimed that China might establish a naval base in Sri Lanka's Hambantota Port in the next two to five years." The Diplomat. "China has completed and operationalised a bridge connecting the north and south banks of the Pangong Tso lake in Eastern Ladakh that allows the People's Liberation Army (PLA) to significantly reduce the time needed to mobilise its troops and tanks." BS. A coordinated attack by Pakistan in the west, Bangladesh in the east, China from the north and also from its base in Sri Lanka in the South, and India could be fighting on four fronts. A US base in Bangladesh would have secured at least one flank. Now we are totally vulnerable.
