SS: In *Foreign Policy*, Sushant Singh argues that India’s deteriorating ties with Bangladesh stem primarily from New Delhi’s own strategic missteps rather than external manipulation by China or Pakistan. By backing Sheikh Hasina’s increasingly autocratic rule and allowing Hindu nationalist politics to dominate its foreign policy, India alienated the Bangladeshi public, ignored mounting resentment, and lost valuable leverage in Dhaka. He argues that India’s diplomatic service failed, much like how it failed with Nepal, Sri Lanka and Maldives.
India’s retaliatory measures, ranging from trade restrictions to border killings and border push-ins only exacerbate tensions and highlight its diplomatic mistakes. Singh warns that unless India abandons coercive diplomacy and recommits to democratic values and regional partnerships, it risks further isolating itself and unraveling its “Neighborhood First” and “Act East” policies in an increasingly multipolar South Asia.

I wonder why a nation of Muslims wouldn’t like to be allied with open anti-Muslim fascists. The Indian government and the Brahmins who run it are the stupidest people to walk the earth.
