Dhaka: Close monitoring of Bangladesh-Pakistan relationship requires critical thinking. The bilateral relations have hastened due to the dynamics of internal polity within the two countries along with the anti-India detestation. Pakistan, a praetorian ideological Islamic state is linked to Al-Qaeda's jihadi network. In post-Sheikh Hasina’s Bangladesh under Muhammad Yunus' interim administration, the jihadi groups and radical Islamists are re-grouping due to poor governance and lawlessness, threatening to destroy the secular fabric of the nation carved out of 'Bhasa Aandolan', the Bengali Language Movement which gave rise to Bengali nationalism. Driven by this Bengali nationalism, people of East Pakistan had unified to create Bangladesh.
