Relationship with India
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina needs to be judicious and careful about extending cooperation to India on Indian terms without resolutely standing for safeguarding the national interests of Bangladesh. In this connection, the role of Lendup Dorje of Sikkim, who played a major part in making Sikkim a province of India through massive manipulations by India, should be borne in mind.
The events in Nepal for the last few years should also act as an eye opener for the prime minister. The people of Bangladesh have already started to be disillusioned by the government and the Awami League because of the manipulations regarding transit of Indian goods through the country.
