It certainly looks that way. This is a source of grave concern for Bharat. The fact that we are cow-towing to their demands is shameful to say the least....

Matarbari may see the same fate. But a deep sea port for container mother ships (80,000 to 100,000 ton capacity) is a must now for Bangladesh' rapid progress. Trying to please another country will harm our own interest and we need very strong diplomacy at this time to make it a reality.

New Delhi considers having a deep sea port anywhere near Cox's Bazaar a security issue because they feel it could be a sanctuary for Chinese subs. Bharatiya govt. is paranoid to the point that they are building subterranean ports for Arihant class subs 50 km North of Vizag (INS Varsha). They're building VLF transmitters and listening posts at all sorts of Eastern coast locations, including Paradip which is a deep sea port on the Orissa coast. They have also stepped up patrols in the upper Bay of Bengal area using their larger OPV's and corvettes.

This is naturally Bharats backyard containing a lot of their urban centers, capital assets and industrial resources - so they will try to protect it. Letting a deep sea port being built in territory not under their direct control is not seen as a good thing.

Time to re-energize this thread with some recent urban images (starting with Dhaka). There may be a few duplicates (possibly) but don't pay heed....

 

[Bilal9]

More images...in the last two years there were roughly two hundred glass towers like this come up in Dhaka....

Construction going on as far as the eye can see.....

Something nostalgic..Chemistry Dept., Dhaka University (Curzon Hall, built at the turn of the century and named after Lord Curzon, Administrator of Bengal).

This is how we feel about fascism as a moderate Muslim country - unlike large neighboring countries which have fascist political parties today.

We should make a duplicate but, with a picture of Churchill instead. In remembrance of the famine in 1943.

Ha ha Thanks for the vote .

Very kind of you bhai.

Just trying to re-pay my birth-dues to my mother-country, that's all.

I know those close to me sometimes get tired for my dedication in this area, but we can't be that selfish now - can we?
