As a result, Hasina has resigned, and the Bangladesh Army is now setting up an interim government, with the Army Chief calling for calm and stability. Reports suggest that Hasina is leaving Bangladesh for India. Her departure is a significant concern for India, which has seen Hasina as its closest geopolitical ally in Asia. The two countries have collaborated on major projects in connectivity and resolved contentious issues, fostering a strong partnership. India’s support for Hasina, despite her authoritarian tendencies, included pushing for reduced international pressure on her government.
However, the political landscape is now fraught with uncertainty. The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), a historically contentious adversary of India, may rise to power. The BNP’s previous reluctance to tackle militant groups and its alliances with Pakistan and China contrast sharply with Hasina’s pro-India stance. The prospect of a BNP-led government threatens to disrupt ongoing economic projects and shift alliances away from India.
