Summary/Abstract |
India and Bangladesh have made significant progress on several matters, all of which certainly merit applause. However, more interesting is the progress made on sub-regional cooperation in the region. The bilateral connectivity will, no doubt, expand in the region, with other states like Nepal and Bhutan benefitting from the access to two Bangladeshi ports as well as trade through the Indian corridor. Matters of water sharing, trade and commerce, including energy, will soon go much beyond the bilateral prism. The recent motor vehicle agreement signed between Bangladesh, Bhutan, India and Nepal is just a first but critical step towards a sub regional initiative that has gathered momentum amongst the South Asian neighbours. Certainly bilateral matters will continue to dominate and be seen as more critical between any two neighbours. The sub-regional cooperation process will ensure that incentives to find resolutions to certain outstanding bilateral matters will assume greater salience.

Summary/Abstract |
The Ganges River Treaty, one of the world's successful examples of a peaceful resolution to a long-drawn river water dispute, has completed half of its tenure. This provides an opportunity to evaluate the variables of its success and further understand how both India and Bangladesh are going to deal with emerging challenges.

Summary/Abstract |
The relations between Bangladesh and India are important and have a strong historic basis. The prospects for these relations to grow in strength are indeed enormous if they are pursued for mutual benefit and with mutual respect. Our geographical proximity, cultural affinity and shared history should form the parameters of our relations.
The challenges that confront policy makers, as well as the general public, are mostly due to negative legacies that may have their roots in our colonial past, where both our people were victims of the divide and rule policies of the Colonialists. This has created a sense of fear and distrust. There are forces in both of our societies who have played, and continue to play, on this fear psychosis to perpetuate mutual suspicion and thereby keep us apart. It is therefore imperative that we work together to lay a new foundation on which to build strong, broad-based, durable and cooperative ties, free from the thinking of the past, and generate greater trust amongst our people. In short, the need of the time is a changed mindset.

Summary/Abstract |
This research note explores the transit issue that has become one of the most problematic disputes overtime between India and Bangladesh. It also analyzes its long-term implication in the bilateral relations between them. The history dates back to the pre independence period when Bangladesh and India were part of the British colony. The roads_. water and railways were then integrated in the communication system. The outlets to the sea were through Chittagong port or via the rivers of Bangladesh reaching the ports of Kolkata. India had pressed Bangladesh to provide transit facilities through the hearts of Bangladesh to connect West Bengal in the west and Tripura in the east. India claims that it will use this transit facility solely for the transport of ?eight and goods between two remotely connected parts of India. But Bangladesh has persistently denied any such agreement earing it as a threat to national security.

Summary/Abstract |
Back in 1991 India articulated a Look East policy with the obvious objective of capitalising on the emerging potential in South East and East Asian regions. With her unique geographical position it was expected that the North Eastern part of India would serve as the land bridge between India and the emerging economies of these regions. In 2002, Bangladesh herself recognised the growing potential of the ASEAN members and other nations in the East Asian region and articulated her own Look East policy with a focus on exploring the
emerging economic opportunities. The immediate priority was to establish connectivity with the extended region through Myanmar.' However, despite occasional policy pronouncements from both sides, the Look East policy of Bangladesh could not really make much headway.

Summary/Abstract |
It was expected that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Dhaka in September 2011 would transform India-Bangladesh relations. However, this did not happen as India could not sign the Teesta water sharing agreement, the biggest deliverable of the visit. It also made some people brand West Bengal (Paschimbanga) Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee as a spoiler. But did West Bengal stop central government from achieving a historic diplomatic breakthrough for narrow political objectives, or were its leaders only protecting their state interests, which central government may not have been fully able to understand being far away from the region? This article examines the impact of West Bengal politics on India-Bangladesh relations and argues that the role played by the states can often add value to foreign policy making and might actually prevent the centre from jeopardising local interests, thereby protecting national interests as well. The India-Bangladesh relationship can improve if treaties are negotiated in such a way that they become win-win for both sides. This will happen if the treaties are signed after due diligence, taking into account all stakeholders, and if they are implemented sincerely.

Summary/Abstract |
In a nut shell, India and Bangladesh relations have developed rapidly in the 21st century in general and in particularly during the NDA led government under the leadership of the PM Modi who gave a new dimension to the relations between the two countries. But it should be noted that the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the leader of Awami League, has shown similar enthusiasm, like PM Modi, to develop India and Bangladesh relations in a same manner. Both the leaders know very well the strength and weakness of their country, and they have realized the need of each other to maintain peace, prosperity and security in the South Asia region.

Summary/Abstract |
During the last six years, India and Bangladesh have surged ahead steadily in multiple sectors. Security cooperation between the two has never been better; indeed it is exemplary. Both have amicably resolved disputes, and completed the boundary demarcation on the land, in rivers, and in the Bay of Bengal. India has unilaterally extended duty free and quota free access to virtually all but 26 Bangladeshi products in the Indian market, resulting in a substantial increase in the volumes of bilateral trade. Eight border haats (markets) have been set up, to date, along Bangladesh’s borders with Meghalaya and Tripura, thus reconnecting and reviving historic economic connections that had existed between peoples and communities on both sides before they were disrupted. Many more are under active consideration. Indian investments in Bangladesh have surged dramaticallyinitially in the garments and textiles as well as telecom sectors, and now expanding steadily into the power and infrastructure sectors also.

Summary/Abstract |
Although India played a major role in the establishment of an independent Bangladesh on April 17, 1971, New Delhi's relations with Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, were neither close nor free from dispute . In 1975 Bangladesh began to move away from the linguistic nationalism that had marked its liberation struggle and linked it to India's West Bengal state. Instead, Dhaka stressed Islam as the binding force in Bangladeshi nationalism.
