Your reporting is so self contradictory ! While you write that the Acting Bangladesh HC was summoned by the MEA in New Delhi, you non-chalantly write, very blissfully, that the Indian HC “had met the BD Foreign Secretary to discuss the matter” !! Really !!? The Foreign Ministry issued statement that the Indian HC was summarily summoned and a strong protest was lodged by the For. Sec. for BSF attempting to raise fence from 60 yards of the border line instead of the allowed 150 yards ! So did the Indian HC simply met the BD For. Sec. !!? You also did not bother to mention why the dispute had arisen and keep on talking about stopping border “crimes” !! How incredible !! I had thought the Print would publish report based on facts but it seems I was terribly mistaken ! When it comes to India’s image being embarrassed by it’s smaller neighbour all Indians are same !! As if smaller neighbours cannot have the audacity to summon the ambassador of the neighbouring openly hostile neighbour!! FYI, AFTER the Indian HC was summoned and given a brushing, New Delhi did the same with BD HC. Hope you will report more objectively.
