Sun, Moon or the Star. BD is the solar system if we go by what Sami, Akram, zakir, munshi maharaj has to say. Zabanya keeps our feet on the ground!!

Bangladesh should have a Military Assistance Group positioned in Dacca and troops of a Regt worth, to include all arms, some firgates and some squadrons of the airforce to help update and hone the BD Armed Forces fighting skills. Without training, weapons are but toys.

I am sure that it would be long that BD will be a world game changer. It has the potential.

And your point is? Cowards are they or have they turned your pants a colour of yellow. Don't mess with them is possibly what is the message. But if they taken law into their own hands, no matter what is the provocation, the Indian Law's heavy hand with visit them. QED!

There are no troops on the Line of Actual Control. It is manned by the ITBP. However, India is toughening her attitude with China. China has objected to ONGC exploration for oil in the South China Seas on behalf of Vietnam because the South China Sea has been claimed by China. By the same...

It appears that the Bangaldesh military is quite powerful. In other countries, the Army is subordinate to the democratically elected Govt and cannot call a PM or any functionary. Even a civilian cannot be called for their Inquiries unless ordered to do so by a Civil Court.

NEW DELHI, INDIA: Special envoy of the Indian prime minister and former Indian ambassador to Nepal Shyam Saran on Tuesday (20 May) said India is ready to stop Gorkha recruitment if Nepal so desires. Saran also made it clear that India would suffer no "practical impact" by discontinuing...

I am afraid your 'sources' are incorrect if they indicate that the Gorkha Rifles is composed of only 2000 Gurkhas who are IDs. For instance, Domiciled Indian Gorkhas form about 20 percent of the total strength of 9 GR.

Good news.

Good show.

Now that is real nasty. It must be a mazar like the same as Ajmer Sharif? However, SL Buddhists are of the aggressive variety and deep into SL politics. They assassinated their own PM, SWRD Bandaranaiake in 1956. it was an evil act of a Buddhist monk named Talduwe Somarama!

Oh wow! Thanks for the information as to how Indians will get rich. Now, with this information, every Tom Dic.k and Harry is making a beeline. I believe there is no seat available on flights till 2200 AD! Please understand that while the entrepreneur will benefit, it is not that they...

The Indo Bangladesh relationship is a classic case of missed opportunities. While Bangladesh is no angel, it is mainly the total lacklustre approach of India which has contributed to a great extent. Notwithstanding the lukewarm results of the ManM trip to Bangaldesh, it is good that India has...

Daily Sun? A new one. I thought it was Daily Star.

That is the thumb rule. However, war is not won on mathematical models. The intangibles play a major role. Then there are the force multipliers. And then not to forget the Chinese way of looking at capabilities - Comprehensive National Power Ah well! Your information is...

How will it benefit India? There is no transit treaty. Putting the cart before the horse. The rail link is really not required by India since Bangladesh railways is basically meter gauge and even if the transit treaty comes into being, it will be of no help unless India manufactures meter...
