Please I urge members that the link contains some horrific pictures. The link provided is to strongly present my case that Bangladesh will emerge as a potential security threat in next 10 years.
Question that needs to be asked is are we going to let Bangladesh go through the same steps by which Pakistan is finally taken over by Jihadis?

Beedis need to be cut down to size in the next 2-3 years. I have repeatedly suggested on BR that India take the CHT from BD as a first step to contain it. That is a very easy task (militarily), as there is only about 12 miles from the Feni river estury and the southern tip of Tripura.

This will deny Beedis a sea port and make them dependent on India for their contact with the rest of the world. India can justify it on the basis of sustained illegal immigration from BD to India, which, with its billion+ population is no immigrant country, and need the land to settle the illegal immigrants (what India does with the CHT is another matter).
