India-Bangladesh Relations: Towards Convergence
About the Book
On the eve of PM’s forthcoming visit to Dhaka, IDSA has come out with a task force report titled “India and Bangladesh: Moving Towards Convergence”.
Taking note of the strategic importance of India and Bangladesh for each other, the report cautions against complacency and argues that the Indian PM’s visit provides an opportunity to take India-Bangladesh relations to a higher trajectory and move towards a strategic partnership. The significance of strong India-Bangladesh ties goes beyond the bilateral context. Good relations between India and Bangladesh will have positive influence on the region. Regional countries like Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar and Thailand will benefit from trade and transit connectivity between India and Bangladesh.
The report has been written by IDSA scholars, Arvind Gupta, Anand Kumar, Smruti Pattanaik, Sreeradha Datta and Ashok Behuria. Director General of IDSA, N. S. Sisodia has written a foreword.
