Sheikh Hasina will join Modi in a summit to mark Bangladesh's 50th independence anniversary, just when Dhaka has told Beijing to get lost or pay up for Chinese Covid vaccine trials.

On 21 Oct, a buzz went up that the govt had released full list of gallantry award recipients along with Op Sindoor citations. I put an AI caddy on the job. It took me into a never-ending rabbit hole.
India does not have the engineering prowess or the economic might to do what China does. India is a technology importer. We do not innovate, we do not promulgate reforms. We oppose reforms and curtain innovation and still want to compete with China… how is that ever possible?
We still hold the party that was responsible for our current state after 70 years of permanent rule as the Secular party whose birth right it is to rule… Good Luck…
India is stranglehold by the cronyism of 1% rich brahmin like Ambani with thoroughly corrupted gov.
They will suppress all competition for easy monopoly business by importing technology like most did in China also.
But China gov plan carefully to promote innovation and self sufficient industry complete supply chain due to West sanction threat. India don’t since it can buy freely including Russia & NASA space exploration rockets & weapons, limited by $ only.
India broken education system based on English without a common indigenous language has further jeopardize a equal platform for all to develop. All science researches and R&D are conducted in English, literally excluded 40% illiterate + 55% poorly educated population.
Whereas China 100% are educated in Chinese, with 98% literacy of 10yrs mandatory good quality education. All researches and development are done in native language Chinese. So everyone can study and develop according to their ability not constraint by language.
Just take back all Bangladeshi & Rohingya back and then calculate GDP.
Our GDP goes low because we poor Indian have to take care of 10% illegal immigrants pushed inside India in the name of Religion.
What do you mean by “take care”.Are you housing any Bangladeshi or Rohingya? How much did you donate? Did you pay for a meal? What makes you think they are eating away India’s GDP? Govt of India is not able to provide it’s own poor citizens what makes you think immigrants are getting anything.
Just like Bangladeshi immigrants in India, there are Indian immigrants in Bangladesh but no one is pushing them out and that’s because India and Bangladesh are neighbours and there will be migration of people between the countries unless you build a high wall.
And speaking of Rohingyas, they are refugees because of a genocide.Show some support, sympathy and take a possible action instead of complaining.
Poor India with its own 1947 broken infrastructures and unsustainable rising 90% debts to GDP ratio, while facing 30% plunging economy with no end in COVID epidemic, is still trying to compete with wealthy China for its influence in all its neighbors with loans and grants.
Pragmatic Chinese is investing heavily in all developing countries under BRI grand plan so that these nations economy potential can be liberated by good infrastructures, hence providing a growing market to its export for a sustainable China’s growth.
China flushed with over US$4T foreign reserves that it must hedge against USD depreciation risk, Infrastructure investment is natural choice for secured long term returns.
These many grand infrastructure projects also provide numerous good paying jobs and huge demand for its excess building and industry capacity to further help sustain its growth.
Most of the loans will be serviceable by their growing economy in a positive cycle leading to Asia fast growing prosperity, hence bigger cake for everyone.
Whereas poor India with zero sum mind, is bleeding itself of few resources that it needs more than anyone, out of sheer Hindutva nationalism and jealousy to China growing influence befitting its economy.
China and Asia will accelerate their rise in win win game, while India has continue to hinder its own domestic development with zero sum mentality in self inflicted bleeding.
Illegal immigrants from Bangla Desh cannot be wished away; whether they are called termites or otherwise. But it is not a charge against the present government tat they have encouraged this or are responsible for this.. The problem is due to history. No one refers to Bangla Desh citizens living there as termites. So Dhaka should not feel unnecessarily traumatized. Besides, even if somebody is identified as non Indian citizen, it is not clear if Bangla Desh will accept such persons. Therefore, we will end up with identifying the illegal immigrants but not able to send them back. If they feel so bad about this, it should announce every such illegal immigrant is welcome back!
This apart, relations between two countries are strong and getting stronger. wit or without China.
I am sure you are not from any neighbouring state of Bangladesh. Bangladeshi will never go to India to live illegally. Afterall India is already poorer than Banglades.
The larger moral story, which helps both Bangladeshis and Indians, is that we should not allow a 25% lead in per capita income melt away in five years. A developing country, with the world’s largest HDI deficit, cannot afford to lose five percentage points of growth each year. The same turbocharged Chinese economy – they are recording barely a dozen new Covid cases daily, from abroad – which has seduced our South Asian neighbours is also something attractive to the US and EU as they struggle to restore growth after the pandemic. If push comes to shove, although not an isolationist, one would say, Forget the neighbourhood. Make India great again …

All this competition from China is good for India. It will force India to be more efficient. Competition always aids efficiency.
BUilding a 6.1 km bridge in just 3years is an amazing feat – not replicable by US, EU or Indian engineers.
No wonder the contract went to CHina.
