Mapping the Dynamics of Sustainable Relationships between India and Bangladesh in Modi’s Era

Abstract

The acquaintanceship between India and Bangladesh started in 1971during the liberation war in Bangladesh, and is evolving satisfyingly well. India follows neighborhood first policy in helping Bangladesh and always tries to maintain a good rapo with Bangladesh and Bangladesh also reciprocates the same. India initiated different government and non- government projects to solidify the bond of friendship with Bangladesh, specifically during Modi’s era. From supplying humanitarian kits to Bangladesh during covid to building pipeline for transport of fuel to Bangladesh. Not only this, India is also supplying electricity to Bangladesh to meet its power crisis. Every year India is receiving the highest number of medical tourist from Bangladesh, who visits India to get better healthcare facilities. India has also signed many of bilateral ties with Bangladesh for which loan facilities are also given to Bangladesh from India. But this sustainable nature of India is creating a dependency culture for Bangladesh. The aim of this current paper is to find the ups and downs between these two countries and why India is helping only Bangladesh more, compared to other neighbors. Methodology used in writing this paper is mainly descriptive and qualitative in nature.
