Pakistan and Bangladesh Relations

THE reciprocal connection amongst Pakistan and Bangladesh is right now encountering a profound stop, as the Awami League-drove government in Dhaka looks to revive the apparitions of 1971, with Islamabad answering in a comparative tone. In the most recent sign that ties are a long way from sincere, the Pakistani appointment chose to blacklist a meeting of the Inter-Parliamentary Union that commenced in Dhaka on Saturday. As indicated by a report in this paper, Pakistani ambassadors and remote service authorities said the circumstance was "not helpful" for Pakistani officials to take an interest in the unsettled. National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq likewise affirmed that the Pakistani designation would not go to. In addition, the Bangladesh Cricket Board has likewise turned down its Pakistani partner's welcome to visit this nation referring to "insufficient" security game plans. 

Pakistan-Bangladesh relations have taken a crash as far back as Sheik Hasina Wajed began her present spell as an executive. Also, with Narendra Modi's rightist government making major decisions in New Delhi, Ms. Wajed's hard line towards Pakistan has been encouraged. A year ago's Saarc summit in Islamabad was put off as Bangladesh was among the local expresses that had hauled out obviously because of Indian weight. Also, on March 25, Dhaka watched 'genocide day' to check the unfortunate occasions of 1971. Also, it has been accounted for that Bangladesh will keep in touch with the UN to watch each March 25 as 'genocide day'. These moves will do little to enhance relations amongst Islamabad and Dhaka, and will just evoke one good turn deserves another reaction from this nation. Without a doubt, the forces that be in Dhaka must consider the advantages, or deficiency in that department, of stressed ties with Pakistan. To what extent will draining the awfulness of 1971 for political mileage keep on benefitting the Awami League? There is almost certainly that the division of Pakistan's previous eastern wing has left profound scars in this nation and also Bangladesh. In any case, the path forward is just through truth and compromise, not through proceeding to harm future ages with the venom of the past. Bangladesh ought to rethink its state of mind to Pakistan and react to Islamabad's suggestions. Then again, notwithstanding the unfriendly environment, Pakistan ought not have boycotted the IPU meeting; it would have managed the parliamentarians a chance to associate with their partners trying to locate a political answer for end this Cold War. Pakistan must react to incitements in a quiet and measured tone and oppose endeavors to detach it provincially and universally.
