Sometimes I think we should declare war against India. Thats the only way of telling those BSF that we are not weak. We can take over eastern part of India’s 7 sister provinces very easily. Its just a matter of time.

War is not always the ideal solution, there are lot of ways those can perform better. Like international pressure, legal actions, pressure from human rights group etc.

What kind of father would place his daughter in such danger? This tragedy was easily avoided by taking note of the fact that there is a shoot to kill policy on both sides and a big wire fence is a pretty good hint not to cross it. I see the father got over first and was fine leaving his daughter tangled on the wire…

This is continuation of a few things …BSF atrocity, Indian arrogance (South Block policy) and Bangladesh’s inability to take such issues for a respectable resolution. On the contrary the other idea is to start shooting BSF animals in retaliation whenever they kill Bangladesh nationals or kidnap them. simple. tit for tat policy. once in the past
