Summary / Abstract (Note) | Bangladesh stands central to India's energy quest in its neighbourhood. The geopolitical realities also prompt and encourages for the cooperation. India with the estimated population of 1.24 billion is around 15 percent of the world’s population and is the fifth largest consumer of energy resources. India-Bangladesh-Myanmar (IBM) Sub-regional Cooperation (IBM-SRC) had made a most remarkable headway in terms of conceptualization of a trans-national gas pipeline with very strong possibilities in 2005. Initially the two countries had planned out to build a pipeline crossing Bangladesh soil. |
