Political Report : New Delhi feels that if the Awami League-led Sheikh Hasina government in Bangladesh weakens, it will be pleasant for neither India nor the United States. New Delhi conveyed this to the Biden administration at several levels of meetings. Such information came to the fore in a special report by the Indian media newspaper on Friday.
According to diplomatic sources in the report, “India is not happy with the current role of the United States in the upcoming elections in Bangladesh and this message has been conveyed to Washington.”
New Delhi’s statement, like Washington, India wants free and fair elections in Dhaka. But the way various steps are being taken by the US to destabilize the Sheikh Hasina government, is not positive for the overall security of India and South Asia as a neighboring country.
The report also said, “Three weeks later, US President Joe Biden and Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will sit on the same stage in New Delhi.” Before that, this message from India is considered very important.
South Block believes that if the Jamaat is given ‘political concession’, then in the near future Dhaka will be taken over by fundamentalism. There will not be a more liberal atmosphere than this.
According to the source, New Delhi has told the Biden administration that if Jamaat is asked about, the way India’s cross-border terrorism may increase. Similarly, China’s influence in Bangladesh will increase a lot, which Washington also does not want.
New Delhi’s diplomatic circles believe that the visa policy of the Biden administration is a direct blow to the internal politics of Bangladesh.
The report also states, ‘Recently a five-member delegation of Bangladesh’s Awami League came to New Delhi and held a meeting with the top leadership of BJP and ministers of the central government.
There he gave the message that the BNP-Jamaat alliance was dangerous for maintaining the regional status quo. Bangladesh Agriculture Minister Abdur Razzaq, who led the delegation, had a positive meeting with Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar.
