Atrocities of BSF/How BGB responds

[Krishna with Flute]

@Krishna with Flute

I have told him many times that India's export is above 800 BN USD. India's export to BD is just 15 BN USD. It is below 2% of India's export. Even if it becomes zero, it won't affect India atall. On the other hand, India withdrawing transhipment and other facilities will hit BD very hard. He is still of opinion that BD tariff can hurt India. I am tired of explaining him the matter. Let him say whatever he wants. BD is ruled by a foreign puppet on the advice of radicals. It will meet the future which it deserve.

I thought you had overcome your comprehension problem. But now I see that I was wrong. India's export to Bangladesh stands at $15 billion which makes Bangladesh the largest export market for India in South Asia and 8th largest in the world. If we impose tariffs on India's products then it will hurt your farmers and business people hard. On the other hand, Bangladesh's export to India is just $1.3 billion. So, if India imposes tariffs on Bangladeshi products it will have minimum impact on Bangladeshi business people. Also, if we revoke transit facility that has been given to India to transport goods to its North Eastern region, it will have deleterious effect on the economy of your 7 sisters.

What you failed to comprehend was those sh**Y 15 bn USD export is less than 2% of our export. Out of that, there are many items such as food items. We have already banned them to maintain stock. It is in high demand. If BD do not buy from us, we have a long line of customers who needs it and we are unable to provide. Pakistan had also tried that but what they ended up was ultimately buying Indian goods through UAE at a higher price.

You are talking of seven sister access, but your country is totally surrounded by India with whom you share 4100 K.M.s of border. If you stop our access to seven sisters, we can go there through Siliguri corridor or through Mynamar or even through Nepal. It will be a bit longer. Now imagine we stop your air traffic over India. How will you go to gulf or even in the east or north. How will you go to even Vietnam and China?

Your lack of communication skill is awful. I was not talking about your total export. I was talking about your regional export. Regionally we are the largest contributor to your impoverished economy. On the other hand your contribution to our economy is minuscule. If we stop trading with you we lose nothing. But you lose the largest regional market for your products. $15 billion is a lot money for a poverty stricken country like India. It doesn't hurt us being surrounded by you on three sides because we have the sea to communicate with the rest of the world. Your 7 sisters need us to get access to the sea. Going through Siliguri corridor to connect to your 7 sisters is not economically viable and this is precisely why your country begged for transit through Bangladesh. We don't use your airspace to go to China, and Vietnam. You do use your airspace to go to Gulf countries though. If you stop air transit we can easily go to the Gulf states using Sri Lanka's air space. We just have to make a deal with the Sri-Lankan government. But if we stop air transit for India, how will you go to your 7 sisters or how will your 7 sisters go to the rest of India by air? You also need to use our air space to go to the Eastern countries.

Your export to India is small because you do not have anything to export. You are not obliging us by importing goods or services from us. You do that because you can do that at least cost compared to anywhere else. Ofcourse, passing through BD is cost effective but what about BD using infrastructure and air space. Imagine, we block our airspace for your flight for westward travels. The problem with you guy is that you never evaluate any issue in terms of profit and loss on both side. You just evaluate issue from the point of view of losses to enemy. Since BD has taken many measures to block Indian trade, wait and see the result. This is the reason why BD is a rogue state and fake democracy where any elected government can be thrown out with ease any time and majority of people support such undemocratic act.

I agree with Saif on this, majority of Indian (and SE Asian) flights going to SE Asia pass Bangladesh air space (including EEZ). Re-routing will be quite expensive to the point of cancelling routes.

Messing with ICAO rules risks severe sanctions from ICAO for Indian flag carriers and private Indian air carriers. Countries like India cannot willy-nilly do whatever they want, especially re: air travel and serving foreign airports, there are rules. Indian carriers will be denied landing rights.

Third world countries like in the subcontinent would be ill-advised to mess with Int'l law.

How much rerouting will happen? I think you have no idea of the geography of BD.

So far as permission of flying over, many times Pakistan has blocked Indian flights flying over Pakistan and many times India too have denied Pakistan flight over Indian territory. I have not seen any consequences because of that.

I would once again say that while you guys evaluate the effect of any action, you just evaluate the loss to enemy and not the loss to yourself. Pakistan has that bad habit which has resulted into huge financial loss to Pakistan without anyway hurting India financially.

Talking with you is tantamount to talking with a tree. Your RSS trained brain prohibits you to see the obvious. India is nothing but a huge landmass with zero strategic value that needs Bangladesh and Pakistan to connect to its own 7 sisters, Eastern and Western part of the world respectively. Study the map. Neither Bangladesh nor Pakistan needs India to connect to the rest of the world. Peace.
