Dear Mr. Turkman
You do not need to be circustic .since I do not know in depth knowledge of the bilateral agreement between India and Bangladesh, I must not get into the arguments. But the fact remains, India is our neighbor and believe to be a good friend. We share same values and more or less same culture..We both need to help each others for its development and welfare of its citizens. We must keep good relation with India and at the same time with other countries. As far as transit and 1 billion dollar assistance, anything fair and reasonable, beneficial for both nation, we must not be negative at all times.
Just hope for the best .

Oh please forgive me. I had no idea we are at war with Kaafir India just like Pakistan has been since 1948 and had no idea that BD should not have any kind of dealings with our Enemy India. How could I be so treasonous?
Lets talk with Pakistan and declare war at India simultaneously to conquer it ...!

Mr. Turkman, why it is always that you are fanatically in support of India's interest? Are you an India promoter? What is your share in this deal, will you tell us? If you are brave enough why don't you list all the unsettled issues between Bangladesh and India; and don't forget to add on the list the diversion of all surface water by India, building dams on transboundary rivers.
All the issues brought to light by Zoglul Husain is absolutely correct. These are legitimate concern and poses threat to the existence of Bangladesh as an independent and sovereign nation.What Bangladesh is getting except the perpetuity assurance of the present government? The present government is buying perpetuity to a tutelage government under India by selling the interest of Bangladesh.-Bangladeshi

Look at Iran ...!
* She is at fault in making money through Bandar Abbas port also because it is providing Transit Corridor to Russia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and all Central Asian States 2 decades ago.
Iran is so stupid that 2 decades ago, she spent billions to build a Highway connecting that port of Ashkhabad, Turkmenistan and also built a Railway Line going through whole length of the country from that port to connect with old USSR Railway System northeast of her.
What a stupid country ...!
* And then, there is a stupid country, Germany that conceded Transit to Soviet Natural Gas Pipe Line in 1970's to let her Gas be sold to almost all countries in Continental Europe despite US Opposition.
USA is a stupid country. She had also conceded transit of Natural Gas Pipe line to Canada going through whole north-south length of it going to Mexico.
* Pakistan is another example of such stupid concession. She has conceded transit to Iranian Gas Pipe Line despite US Opposition, going to India and our stupid Enemy, India has conceded Transit of that Pipe line to BD after it reaches her.
What can we do?
This world is full of stupid countries like BD.

Roads constructed for these purposes will almost certainly be used for India's military purposes, which may even be from the very first consignment of smaller items, scheduled from 20 March. (Please see: ODC shipment begins March 20 http://www.bdnews24.com/details.php?cid=2&id=189840 ). This is not only a security risk, it is occupation of our infrastructure, an attempt to subjugate us, which may also drag us between warring parties.

They know we were denied transit from/to Nepal, Bhutan, etc. They know the problems between the two countries have not been resolved. The very serious problems of river water, border killings, smuggling in India's favour, enclaves, trade policies, conspiracy and hegemony, military and security, etc., etc. are in the way of developing friendly relations between the two countries. The govt is still behaving like lackeys mesmerised under the spell of a hegemonic power.
