Regime change through cue in BD is a security concern particularly when it was engineered by other powerful countries. This need attention. However, BD navy was never a cause of concern for India and shall never be in future..

Regime change in Bangladesh was the result of intense protest against Hasina's misrule by the students and people from all walks of life. No powerful country was involved in this student protest movement. As for BD Navy not being a cause of concern for Indian navy is your figment of imagination. Bangladesh will build a blue water navy in the future. So, your assertion that BD Navy will remain a small, weak, and with a 0 power projection capability is your personal opinion which is based on figment of your imagination.

Best of luck for it. There is a whole eco system which makes any military strong. Unless any country develops that, it can not have any system which can make any formidable enemy concern about that. India is even not much concern about Pakistani navy except its French submarines forget about BD.

A Chinese naval fleet visited Bangladesh on Saturday (October 12, 2024), becoming the first foreign fleet to do so after since the interim government took charge in Dhaka in early August. China-Bangladesh relations will continue to grow irrespective of the recent political changes in Dhaka, China’s ambassador to Bangladesh Yao Wen said on the occasion.
“No matter what changes have taken place in the domestic situation of Bangladesh, China’s commitment to develop China-Bangladesh relations remains unchanged. China is looking forward to working closely with Bangladesh to cement our traditional friendship, deepen friendly exchanges and mutually beneficial cooperation in various areas, promote high quality Belt and Road cooperation,” the Chinese embassy in Dhaka said in a statement.
Earlier, Mr. Yao Wen and the Commanders of the Chinese naval fleet, Qi Jiguang and Jing Gangshan, met Rear Admiral Masud Iqbal, Commander of the Chattogram Naval Area, Rear Admiral Mohammed Moinul Hassan, Commander of the Bangladesh Navy Fleet, and Rear Admiral S.M. Moniruzzaman, chairman of the Chittagong Port Authority. The two sides discussed plans to further strengthen maritime and security cooperation between the Bangladeshi and Chinese naval forces.
Strategic partnership
China and Bangladesh are “comprehensive strategic cooperative partners”, Mr. Yao Wen said. The last significant visit between the two countries was by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in July 8 to 10 when she reportedly cut short her trip to return to Dhaka and deal with the student agitation there.
Bangladesh has been building a dock in Chittagong with Chinese help. The facility had earlier attracted attention as it has the potential to host submarines and warships. However, in May this year, the South China Morning Post cited experts saying that New Delhi was “not overly concerned”, indicating that the warm political ties between Sheikh Hasina and India would prevent such a possibility.
On Saturday (October 12, 2024), the Chinese PLANTask Group 83 reached the Chittagong port, amidst fanfare as Chinese and Bangladeshi citizens waved national flags. The Chinese fleet will be stationed in the Chittagong Port for four days and host a series of events, including bilateral meetings, deck receptions, and ship open days to enhance “China and Bangladesh Navy cooperation and mutual trust, and contribute to the building of a maritime community of shared future,” the Chinese embassy in Dhaka said.
