In a surprising turn of events, relations between Dhaka and New Delhi appear to be cooling off following the ouster of former Bangladeshi prime minister Sheikh Hasina in August. The International Crime Tribunal in Bangladesh has announced that it is in the process of requesting the extradition of Hasina from India, where she had previously enjoyed warm relations with the government.
During Sheikh Hasina’s tenure, Bangladesh and India had maintained strong ties, with economic cooperation and bilateral agreements flourishing between the two neighboring countries. However, since her removal from power, there seems to be a shift in the dynamics between Dhaka and New Delhi.
The move to request Hasina’s extradition demonstrates a potential strain in the relationship between Bangladesh and India, as the two countries navigate the aftermath of the political upheaval. It remains to be seen how this development will impact the future interactions and collaborations between the neighboring nations.
As tensions rise and uncertainties loom over the diplomatic ties between Dhaka and New Delhi, observers are closely monitoring the situation to see how the relationship evolves in the coming months. Stay tuned as we continue to follow this story and provide updates on the shifting dynamics between Bangladesh and India.
