Dhaka, Aug 27 (IANS) Bangladesh-India relations have entered a complicated but consequential phase.

The challenge is not to restore an old model of bilateral engagement but to build a new one, grounded less in political proximity and more in equality, reciprocity, sovereignty, and clearly defined mutual interest. Bangladesh needs India, but India equally needs a stable, prosperous and cooperative Bangladesh, and recognising this mutual dependence could be the foundation for a more mature relationship.
