@Sharma Ji & @Vsdoc Bangladesh and Pakistan trying to help each other is like old delhi saying

BHUKKE NE BHUKKE KI MAAREE DONNO GASHH KHAA KE GIRR PARRE ;) :P

In the old days before the Suez Canal, merchant ships would round the Horn of Africa.

Now in 2025, Bangladeshi dinghies will go around the horn of India.

And maybe get a horn gratis too in the endeavour ...

You know exactly where.
