12)Sheikh Hasina the right choice as chief guest to the Republic Morning but trust the PMO to miss the obvious

India Republic Day -- From a record 10 Chief Friends for the Republic Day March in 2018 to non-e in 2021 is as very much a reflection on Prime Minister Narendra Modis out of the box approach to foreign policy.

From a record 10 Chief Friends for the Republic Day March in 2018 to non-e in 2021 is as very much a reflection on Prime Minister Narendra Modis out of the box approach to foreign policy since his blind spots although zeroing in on an extraordinary foreign dignitary.

Sheikh Hasina Prime Minister of Bangladesh would have been the perfect Republic Day Chief Guest this year for umpteen reasons but it obviously didnt occur to Modi to single her away for the honour. I shudder to even speculate if the visionary and statesman like Modi is blinded by means of her religion or sexual category or both to pass her up?

Instead of inviting Uk PM Boris Johnson who else ultimately chickened out Hasina should have been Modis programmed choice this year as it is the 50th anniversary of the delivery of Bangladesh in 1971 along with the 50th year of the business of diplomatic relations concerning New Delhi and Dhaka. Indias role in the formation of Bangladesh by smashing the Pakistani army is actually well known. I have brought up only to underline our stakes in Bangladesh. Moreover Hasina has been Indias steadfast and also unwavering ally in Southern region Asia who has even surpassed swords with Pakistan on Indias behalf. Her legitimate commitment to New Delhi is a proven and perceived fact. My friends in the Additional Affairs Ministry and the security establishment tell me that that one of the biggest priorities in our foreign policy is to make sure that Hasina somehow remains the PM of Bangladesh which will proves how invested we are in her.

Modi has a strange fixation for Initial World leaders. Last year they pulled out all stops to grab Donald Trump as the Fundamental Guest to show his home constituency that whether it is Barrack Obama or Trump zero US President can say no to Modi. But Overcome was too frightened by means of pollution levels in Delhi or simply too bored with Modi to accept the invitation which will resulted in an eleventh hour invite to the obnoxious and also repulsive Jair Bolsonaro associated with Brazil. In a sense Modi got the last laugh though. This individual lured Trump to Ahmedabad and Delhi in Feb 2020 with the promise associated with Gujarati votes in the US elections! This time Modi eyed the dishevelled Johnson who is as an aside also hard of hearing. It was a done offer until it suddenly fell through so close to January 26 that finding another Fundamental Guest on the rebound has been well and truly impossible leaving Modi stranded.

Hasina has done so much for Indian that Modi keeps paying out Bangladesh compliment after supplement. He recently described the latest phase of bilateral relationships as the golden era associated with India-Bangladesh ties. Modi definitely doesnt talk out of his / her hat. He means what exactly he says. During a 90-minute long Virtual Summit together with Hasina on December teen 2020 he said: Bangladesh is a major pillar associated with Indias Neighbourhood First plan. From the very first day as PM strengthening and development of relationships with Ban gladesh has been a exclusive priority for me. Hasina immediately reciprocated by phoning India Bangladeshs true friend.

There are far too many instances of these cordial exchanges. But I became most touched by what Hasina said during a World Monetary Forum meeting in 2018 in Dalian. Our relationships with India are natural. It cannot be measured by just a few billion dollars associated with trade. India and Bangladesh shed blood together for the creation of my region.

In Octobe r 2020 India posted a new High Commissioner Bikram Doraiswami who else drove to Dhaka as opposed to flying there. While visiting the Awami League headquarters on December 23 2020 Doraiswami according to a report in Ittefaq a leading Bangladeshi newspaper remarked that if the Awami League isnt there Indian will be friendless in Bangladesh. If thats indeed real doesnt Awami League soberano Hasina - who has supposed Modi to Dhaka for the reason that Chief Guest on the situation of the 50th anniversary associated with Bangladeshs independence in Mar 2021 - deserve to be the Chief Guest at the Republic Day?
